The full video of my Upper Bound 2025 talk about our research directions should be available at some point, but here are my slides:
docs.google.com/presentation…
And here are the notes I made while preparing, which are more extensive than what I had time to say:
docs.google.com/document/d/1…
I had managed to go my entire career without making a slide deck. People generally seem happy enough to just let me ramble on for talks, but since I am new to the research community, I made an effort here!

the most consequential figures in the tech world are half guys like steve jobs and bill gates and half some guy named ronald who maintains a unix tool called 'runk' which stands for Ronald's Universal Number Kounter and handles all math for every machine on earth

I've been creating a tool but now contemplating of even releasing due to limitations. You draw a 2D sprite, set the depth of each 'pixel' and presto a 3D model! Since you're working on 1 axis you can probably guess the limitations. Would love to hear your ideas? #gamedev
