Publication alert!
New article out in Big Data & Society on digital phantoms and synthetic data in medical physics. We explore the making of digital reference objects for human bodies and how they are used in construction of ground truths, as known, & even perfect truths.

I have a new paper out in @jhokjournal.bsky.social - "Loss: A notion of error in machine learning." It attempts to draw some wider historical comparisons than are perhaps usual. I would love to know what you think. journalhistoryknowledge.org/article/view...

❗ We are urgently looking for a new Lecturer in Cultural Data & AI at the University of Amsterdam: werkenbij.uva.nl/en/vacancies...
The deadline for applying is very soon: Jan 4th.
You’ll work with @tpoell.bsky.social, @riederb.bsky.social, @dluitse.bsky.social, @louravn.bsky.social, me, & more
We are excited to report that we have started developing our first *Little Tools of Difference*.
While deep learning has been driven by a culture of uniformity, we asked: What if we used these same state-of-the-art architectures to do the opposite?
More prototypes are coming soon, so stay tuned!
