I'm especially excited about the design implications, including smaller models, expanded metaphors, and systems that focus more on the process than the output (video: youtube.com/watch?v=RY3R...)

this was motivated by the curiosity of if there are creative writers who are choosing to use AI, why and how are they doing it in a way that can still feel good and preserve the human element?

through interviews and observed writing sessions with 18 creative writers who already use AI regularly in their writing practice, we find that creative writers are intentional about how they incorporate AI, based on their core values dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/...

earlier this summer I published my first paper of my phd! ✨ a qualitative study on how creative writers are using AI in their writing and what their strategies were in order to align with their personal writing values

I finally made a custom poem menu - adding poems and formatting their links with dates, updating the last poemed date (always forgot to do this), keeping track of sheet colors and adding variation to the pixels/though I find the individual pixel painting more fun

It’s very much a site still in progress as I add to the map over time, but you can now explore the public site at aliciaguo.com/apoemaday

I’ve been collecting the poems I read in this Google sheets spreadsheet site. Each emoji opens to a new poem link.

This map has been handcrafted for the past 2 years on and off, and I hope you will share your favorite poems -> 💌

Hi everyone!✨We are holding a speculative design workshop on What Should a Language Model by Creative Writers, for Creative Writers Be? welcoming creative writers/teachers/scholars/artists invested in creative writing. We will run this workshop twice: April 9 and 23 at 4PM ET.

Alicia Guo demonstrates some of her computational poetry. “Have I left the fridge open??”

also hoping to see more *things people are making* / working in public / process-posting on here!

started an account for @hyperlink.academy - we haven't posted much yet but want to use it to share research q's, WIP designs, community inspo etc. & generally thinking out loud as we build

soft launching the PhD — excited to join them in the fall!

still figuring out what to post here vs there and rn it’s Twitter for the big bois, 3rdspace for the project updates/accountability, and here for the casual in between which ends up being small creative bits
