This fall, I’m teaching a brand-new course at Hertie on AI evaluation.

Basically every piece of software I write eventually uses some form of stochasticity.

Teaching CausalML The most important paper I’ve ever read was David Freedman’s Statistical Models and Shoe Leather.

I’ve made a few changes and updates to this website.

I started a Substack not that long ago, because I wanted to get back into blogging.

Kevin Munger and I recently had the joy to write a response to “Nonparametric Identification is not enough, but randomized controlled trials are” by the all-star team of Aronow, Robins, Saarinen, Sävje and Sekhon (ARSSS).

The US 2020 Facebook and Instagram Election Project (US2020) was a sprawling project with dozens of people involved at various levels: like little ol’ me (on the Meta side).

Back in November of 2023, I was lucky enough to participate in a “Morality in Tech” workshop hosted by Princeton’s CITP put on by Kevin Munger.

Kevin Munger has a great article out problematizing the idea of “The Algorithm”.

In an earlier post, I promised that rather than writing threads about papers, I’d talk about them here.

I think it’s important to make the simple point that plagiarism is bad1.

Everyone seems to agree now that Twitter/X is bad.

The US2020 Facebook and Instagram Election Project (US2020 from here out), the first four papers of which were recently published in Science and Nature, can be the blueprint for meaningful regulation of large online platforms.

Intro I’ve never been good at keeping my website updated.
