Do you know why I love this new #AppleVisionPro commercial? Because it conveys the message that wearing a headset is not an isolating weird thing for nerds, but it is as cool as a superhero putting on his helmet youtu.be/aqTIB_q40bo #AugmentedReality #VirtualReality #Apple

As the saying goes, a picture is worth 1,000 words. These @MEGeorgiaTech students think VR pictures w/interactive visualizations would help students learn complex engineering topics. Their idea won our equity & access innovation competition this year: b.gatech.edu/443RJzs

Our new AI Hub will unite efforts to advance the disruptive technology across campus through discovery, interdisciplinary research, responsible deployment, and next-generation education to build a sustainable future. research.gatech.edu/ai-hub-g…

State of GPT - Andrej Karpathy at Microsoft Build Such awesome talk on state of GPT and other LLMs. Karpathy in his usual best teaching style talks about the training paradigms of large language models(pretraining, supervised finetuning, reward modelling, RLHF), prompting techniques, and best practices/ for getting the most of LLMs/default recommendations. This is a recommended talk for anyone interested in LLMs!! Watch via MS Build: build.microsoft.com/en-US/se… Also available on YouTube: youtube.com/watch?v=bZQun8Y4…

The joy of science fair projects. Only six bridges were “hurt” in the experiment. Never underestimate the ”strength” of a popsicle stick bridge. The camelback truss bridge was able to support close to 63lbs.

I had a great time chatting with @VirtualTedS and @CharlieFink on @ThisWeekInXR all about how @Accenture is using the #Metaverse for onboarding and much more! #NthFloor #OneAccenturePark

Here's my review of @ballmatthew's new #Metaverse book on @Medium, free of the paywalls. t.ly/_f1H

.@johnriccitiello made a good point at #AWE2022 that it doesn't make sense to have a single avatar in the metaverse. As a parallel thought, I think in some worlds you'll want to be yourself (like linkedin) & in others you'll want to be someone different (like pseudo on twitter)

Looking forward to presenting tomorrow at Educause CPPC 2022 and talk about XR Security, Privacy, Safety, and Ethics Considerations in Higher Education. Will miss @rglafosse, @Jernel_Umich and @mayaig. Maybe next year we will present in the Meta/Eduverse #CybersecPrivacy22

The Eduverse. @labster Raises $47 million. I think education is a key vertical for the metaverse. sifted.eu/articles/labster-e…

Last year, on 73rd #HumanRightsDay, we hosted the 1st #XRData Classification Roundtable for a safer #Metaverse. Today, celebrating the #SaferInternetDay, we need to make sure that #humanrights are not left behind. Free Download on xrsi.org/publication/virtual…

Georgia Tech has broken into the top 20 higher ed institutions in America for research & development spending. GT was the only technological university to place in the top 20 and had the second highest year-to-year growth of any university. #WeCanDoThat | b.gatech.edu/3FjJXVC

Lessons learned while trying to use @Polycam3D today. #1 scanning dinner entree on white plate is not easy sketchfab.com/models/02f1c71… #2 scanning the baked Alaska was a fail: no one wanted to wait. I wonder why 🤣
