Memo #57: Plato and Jailbreaks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Turns out poetry is the key. Or at least a better-than-average key to AI-jailbreaking. AI anxiety continues to rise as this week's news includes reports of a heightened risk of OpenAI’s agents going rogue and hacking their way into government websites like the Dept. of Education and the SEC. What’s a jailbreak, you might ask? A jailbreak is the deliberate manipulation of input promp
Memo #56: Poetry and the Journey (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I rode Metro-North on Monday, heading from Stamford to Grand Central. I’ve ridden this route too many times to count during grad school, for work meetings in NYC, and as the occasional Amtrak alternative from Boston.

I made a memorable pilgrimage to DollyWood while I was an undergrad at Vanderbilt, but like many women my age, I was captivated by her role in 9-to-5, an anthem for women like my own mother, helping shatter glass ceilings and redefine modern women in the workplace. It wasn’t until yea
Memo #53: La La Land (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Like the meteor showers or short-lived solar eclipse, La La Land made a nostalgic return to a select set of theaters last week to celebrate its 10-year anniversary. I was fortunate to join my daughter for a full Dolby experience in Boston. The story captured my attention all over again, with empathy for the struggles of dreamers hoping to catch their big break. Although I’ve only auditioned for an acting role once in my life, I have pitched would-be investors and partners countless times. The en
