My first ever toot!

Seems appropriate to announce it here first: I'm co-organizing a symposium on algorithmic amplification at the Knight Institute at Columbia. Paper workshop on Apr 27 + public event on Apr 28. Send abstracts by Jan 2.

"Optimizing for What? Algorithmic Amplification and Society" https://knightcolumbia.org/blog/call-for-participation-optimizing-for-what-algorithmic-amplification-and-society

What a day to announce it — one of the foremost teams researching amplification has been gutted. But that only makes studying it all the more important.
