I'm looking to find people interested in semi-supervised clustering, particularly with hard "must not be in the same cluster" constraints, to better understand your use cases.

Today is the 10 year anniversary of Alt-AI! Alt-AI was a 3-day conference in NYC hosted by @sfpc and curated by me, exploring the then very niche field of creative AI. Lots of amazing artists and people participated, including talks by @mtyka @hdeweyh @RebeccaFiebrink @quasimondo @aparrish @golan @arnicas @bwhitman. There was also an exhibition with early AI art by @kcimc @memoakten @dribnet @hardmaru @schwittlick_ @xululululuuum and many others. I had never thought about organizing or curating before, but when @zachlieberman asked me to put it together, I thought I might never get another chance to put a roster like this into one room together, so I went for it. I'm still grateful and nostalgic for these days when this technology was so new weird and unexplored.

Who do I know that would be interested in a part-time video prompt engineering job? Remote ok but Europe (or in a pinch US east coast) would be best.
