🎤 From the VL/HCC 2025 keynote by Dr. Pınar Yolum

Trust in human–AI collaboration isn’t about replacing people — it’s about designing AI systems that work with humans as teammates.

A thoughtful perspective on what it truly means to build trustworthy, human-centered AI.

The full keynote recording is linked in the comments.

🎤 From the VL/HCC 2025 keynote by Dr. Sumit Gulwani

Programming by example isn’t about translating intent — it’s about searching for logic that stays consistent across examples.

A powerful reminder of what human–AI collaboration truly requires.
