🎓 Congratulations to Purnima Kamath on her successful PhD defense! 👏 Her research on "Designing & Evaluating Interactive Generative Audio Models for Sound Design," supervised by Assoc. Prof. Suranga Nanayakkara , has been featured in top-tier venues like CHI, IEEE TASLP, and ICASSP. 🎉

The Dr. is in the house! Congratulations to Dr. Purnima Kamath for her incredible PhD defense in UX and genAI for audio! Dr. Kamath creates these weird and surreal sound morphs you can't unthink, like barking cats and trumpeting babies! 😃🎶🤖 Here's to your future, Purnima!✨🍾

As a senior researcher who has both published in A* venues and has written toolkits himself and overseen the development of several others, it is humiliating to have to do leetcode grinding for a research scientist role in big tech. I have written more code than most people and I

Stoked to report that our paper "MorphFader: Enabling Fine-grained Controllable Morphing with Text-to-Audio Models" has been accepted at ICASSP 2025! My final paper from my PhD thesis! arxiv.org/abs/2408.07260 Thanks & congratulations to my co-authors Chitralekha & Suranga Nanayakkara 🥳

Don't hire deep thinkers if deep thinkers are not what you want. Don't hire deep thinkers if you intend for them to solve problems on a shallow level. Don't hire deep thinkers if you see their insights as an obstacle.
