Great vibes across the #RecSys2022 #reception party at Seattle Aquarium. Thanks to the Seattle Aquarium team and staff for great arrangements which allowed guests to have food and drink across indoor/outdoor settings while learning about sea animals and fishes.

It is great and proud to see Indian companies like ShareChat joining and sponsoring mainstream research conferences #RecSys2022 #Seattle. #Kudos to the design team on appreciation of colors in every part of the company's artifacts. Love it!

It is always a pleasure to meet GroupLens members and Joe Konstan wherever they are in the world. This time, the occasion was #RecSys2022 and location is #Seattle. Impact of #movielens dataset was seen across all sessions of #RecSys2022.

I'm on the job market! I design, build, and evaluate human-AI systems with a focus on human-centered criteria such as understandability, effectiveness, & reliability. I'm interested in both industry and academic positions. Please reach out if you know of relevant opportunities!

My alma mater Sharif University is under attack right now. The students are being shot and arrested. They're not even safe in the dorms. #SharifUniversity #MahsaAmini x.com/AfsoonAB/statu…

Twitter has open sourced their #recsys code. They have also published a summary of the main components. My conclusion: nothing surprising, groundbreaking, or that you wouldn't expect if you work in this area. Nothing really SOTA either blog.twitter.com/engineering/en…
