Every researcher knows this feeling: staring at a screen, wondering what to work on next. Good news? Ideas can be generated systematically, not just discovered accidentally. Here's a framework I have developed for generating (good) research ideas: smitdesai.net/reflections/20…

Here's an essay I wrote a while back arguing that there's significant new discoveries at the interface between Human-Computer Interaction (#HCI) and #Neuroscience : lab.plopes.org/essays/hcineur… and that's why I am organizing a meeting with 20+ minds, starting tomorrow (in japan)!

Heading to Shonan meeting about "Human-Computer-Interfaces x Neuroscience" 🗻 My questions are.. ❓When humans integrate with computers and acquire abilities and different bodies beyond what we currently possess. How do we define our humanity? ❓How will AI / HCI evolution impact
