The latest #aaba2026 meeting was the best yet! I have so many highlights, from the art expo and silent auction to the education committee workshop and course seeing the fascinating talks and posters. I’m so glad my 3D prints were so well received.

I genuinely think the worst thing the internet did to reading was convince people that finishing books is a competitive sport. You don't need to read 52 books a year. You just need to read. Books you like. At your own pace. And think about them for longer than a TikTok video.

I remember, even within the introduction to AI course I audited in grad school in 2015, I remember the inclusion of some graph like this. The thing which is maybe surprising in my reread is how quickly it seems like researchers within these field are willing to accept the redefinition in scoping.
A graph with a set of concentric circles. The outermost is "AI" (artificial intelligence" and has under it "umbrella term but also used in basic AI applications such as "robot programming", "search algorithms", "boolean logic", "other applications".

Next is "ML", machine learning. "AI subset: anomaly detection as in fraud prevention", "predictive analytics as in forecasting".

Next is "DL", deep learning: "image recognition", "speech to text", "identify molecular structure in drug research".

And last is LLM, Large Language Models, "ChatGPT, BERT, T5", "trained on enormous datasets"
