There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

A Georgia Tech group called the Expressive Machinery Lab is tackling a specific challenge in the artificial intelligence landscape - they have developed public exhibitions where the AI agents are front-and-center and people are able to create with them.
Duri Long, PhD student in Human Centered Computing, joins the Tech Unbound podcast to talk about this research, and she shares some wild anecdotes from her time as a show runner and curator of some of these AI-powered exhibits.
