This prevents the use of Oculus devices in classrooms and research labs.
Facebook is going to start requiring a Facebook account in order to use their VR headsets. They're sunsetting separate Oculus accounts in 2023, & new users will have to use their Facebook account starting in October 2020.
New privacy policy coming in Oct.

There is a misconception that famous researchers in ML are innately brilliant.
Most well known researchers I meet are not. They are smart. But the dominant traits are perseverance and sense of research agenda. They pursue interesting questions and are willing to fail doing so.

Talking about robot creepiness with #teens for @ProjectEMAR - Regarding a security robot, an 18 year old, female teen shared, “Human police are making mistakes all the time, I might be more comfortable being confronted by a robot police person.”

Today @sim18ran and I talked with #teens about what technologies are creepy and why for @ProjectEMAR creepiness study. I am always amazed at what teens have to say and how they think. Today is no exception.
