The CBC podcast Understood is running a series on a nasty social problem: deepfake porn. The first episode provides a really interesting history of how computer vision technology took a dark turn about a decade ago. Take a listen here: www.cbc.ca/listen/cbc-p...

Do We Need Subsidiarity in Software? #CHI2026 paper led by @louisaconwill.bsky.social. Subsidiarity is a principle where decisions or control occurs at the lowest level possible and the highest level necessary. Think about that for platforms like this one... Read it here: arxiv.org/abs/2509.13466

I'm a guest on the latest episode of History Uncensored, chatting about the history of photographic manipulation and its relationship to DeepFakes today. Lots of social problems related to this stuff, for sure, but also some under-appreciated cultural aspects. Check it out here: t.co/rMBVmvCsn3

My News & Views piece on computer vision data set fairness just hit @nature.com. Shortcomings have always been present in our data sets, with some recent work by Sony attempting to address them for model evaluation. We still have a ways to go though for training... www.nature.com/articles/d41...

In light of the recent events surrounding the summer reading list in the Chicago Sun-Times, @wjscheirer.bsky.social wrote about large language models, generated text hallucinations, and the tech history that led to this moment. #ReadUP

The #WACV2026 Call for Papers is live at wacv.thecvf.com/Conferences/...! First round paper registration is coming up on July 11th, with the submission deadline on July 18th (all deadlines are 23:59 AoE).

What’s really interesting about this is that it isn’t a new issue; detecting out-of-set or novel input has been an unsolved problem in ML for decades, and as far as I know there has been little progress solving it in the general case (see among others the recent paper from @wjscheirer.bsky.social)

Check out the Call for #CVPR2025 Socials CVPR is inviting proposals for social events to happen during the main conference (in-person)! Have a great idea for a social event? Please send us your proposal! The Deadline is quickly approaching, Apr 18, 2025 11:59 PM AOE.

I love that the call for musical performers is now a regular thing for @cvprconference.bsky.social! I have some firsthand experience with this from way back when (CVPR 2010 in San Francisco) — I can confirm it is really fun, and there are some very talented musicians in our community.
