Cool results & insights from our new "forensic reading" method for extracting unclassified intelligence files and spy fiction using a combination of NLP and AI methods are coming soon! Exciting!

What a fantastic, creative buzz within my research group (DH Research Group #1 | AI Safety and Security in Digital Humanities) this summer! I look forward to publishing some of our new research results soon. Kudos to Thorsten Ries, Steph Buongiorno, PhD, Adam Hanzel, and Hiba Farouqi!

In fact, I am grateful to @markstout.bsky.social for his patience in editing my chapter, as he did an incredible job, while pushing me to constantly improve. A fact!

Thanks. Actually, if you think about the cases of Russia and say Mexico, then we do deal with that too.

I’m really proud of this. We’re breaking down the US-centric approach of “covert action” to explore the phenomenon of unacknowledged interference in international relations.

The CIA dominates the history books; Russia today’s headlines… but lots of states, past and present, have been up to it

It's a special day! After two years, @lucatrenta.bsky.social & I submitted our edited volume, “Killing in the Name of the State: State-Sponsored Assassinations in International Politics.” Thanks to all contributors and Lynne Rienner Publishers. Awaiting peer review and hope to see it in print soon!
