Just arrived in beautiful Bergen, Norway for #CSCW2025 !

I will present our work on Narratives of War on Tuesday and chair the Partisan Discourse Online session on Wednesday.

If anyone wants to have a random chat, get in touch, I'll be glad!

I’d been intrigued by the idea of using generative models to simulate ecosystems & other decentralized collectives 👾

An amazing team brought it to life — special thanks to Francesco Cozzi, who made it his Master’s thesis 🙏

@c0rrad0.bsky.social presenting our work on the Russia-Ukraine war on social media #ic2s2

If you Google Francesca Albanese, the first result shown is this piece of terrifying manipulation by the Israelian government attacking her persona.

If any non-western government was waging this kind of infowar, we would have already tons of computational social science about it.

Presented our work with @c0rrad0.bsky.social, @bolozna.bsky.social, and Barbara Keller on user behavior change after cross-party interactions at #ICWSM today! Was a great experience and got a lot of interesting questions 🙌
Also: currently looking for postdoc opportunities - happy to chat!

With many thanks to the amazing team @jlenti.bsky.social @gdfm.bsky.social @lajello.bsky.social
