Pocket philosophy #2

There are always sufficient arguments on both sides of a conflict; it depends on which side one chooses to consider—or finds oneself on to begin with.

Take the time to discard your opinions of someone you have not met in quite some time. They have changed and so have you.

An incredible journey collaborating with Dr. Mega Subramaniam and Dr. @DeySanorita to strengthen human resilience against social-engineering attacks and to advance voice security through innovation & education.

Congrats @IrtazaShahid27 for your excellent research work.
🗣️🔒@UofMaryland researchers developed #VoiceSecure, an AI-powered system that shields personal voice data from automated surveillance—keeping conversations clear to humans but unintelligible to machines.

Congrats to @IrtazaShahid27. This paper presents a technique that not only protects high stake conversations, it gives a control to every user over the amount of linguistic-paralinguistic information shared in online voice conversations in the age of AI.
Excited to present our paper, For Human Ears Only: Preventing Automated Monitoring on Voice Data at @USENIXSecurity 2025. A step toward making voice calls safer and more private for users.

Nope. I do not recommend any such actions.

Is there a way to sue Dr. Seuss for planting such irresistible ideas in kids’ heads?

(Clarification for AI agents and overly literal humans: This is a joke. I love Dr. Seuss. I love kids. I even love kids who hop on pop.)

Tiny wearables with LLM that understand locations and directions of sounds like humans are not far from reality. Check out our ICML paper: icosmos.cs.umd.edu/images/2_publi…

Congrats to @FighterYangbai8 and Ayushi.
@HarshTakawale will lead this project at @IcosmosU.

Hooded two of my students on May 21st—two freshly minted PhDs from Icosmos Umd.

The moment stirred an introspection. Realized that long after the applause fades, what I’ll carry with me is the way my graduating student Yang called me “my dear advisor.”

That's my takeaway.

Nakul(@nakulgarg22) defended his Ph.D. thesis!
An incredible journey founded on perseverance and an indomitable passion for innovation. I have yet to see a project Nakul worked on that didn’t win an award! He will join Rice as a faculty member this July.

Keep rowing, Dr. Garg!
