Communications of the ACM, flagship of the Association for Computing Machinery, is a leading publication for the computer science and IT fields.
"Harnessing AI, Behavioral Data Science for Smarter Consumer Platforms," by Anusha Musunuri, says AI is playing a central role in shaping #UserExperience, optimizing #monetization, and designing systems that adapt to evolving patterns of digital behavior. bit.ly/4nSOXYr

"Understanding Mobile App Reviews to Guide Misuse Audits," by Vaibhav Garg (@Virginia_Tech), Hui Guo (@Quora), Nirav Ajmeri (@BristolUni), Saikath Bhattacharya (@IllinoisStateU, Munindar Singh (@NCState), says app reviews can help identify exploitable apps bit.ly/4mcqY4U

"Benchmarks for AI in Software Engineering," by Satish Chandra (@Google), calls the lack of commonly adopted benchmarks for significant portions of the #SoftwareDevelopment lifecycle a missed opportunity for #developers and ML engineers. bit.ly/4559TmL

Lenore D. Zuck (@thisisUIC), co-author of "It Takes a Village" (bit.ly/4o8FpZK), says collaboration between network #developers and the formal methods community would increase the security of nextgen #networking systems, in an original #video, bit.ly/4lJtZtS

"It Takes a Village: Bridging the Gaps between Current and Formal Specifications for Protocols," David Basin et al. says the #networking community could benefit from adopting formal methods, bit.ly/4o8FpZK

"On Notifications," by @VGCerf (@Google), describes new ideas that are emerging to make #communication among interacting agents more reliable and precise. bit.ly/3GZsNDm

Henrik Skaug Sætra (@UniOslo) discusses "To Post or Not to Post" (bit.ly/45480rw), his @CACMmag #Research #Article on @X, #EthicalAI, and frameworks that define a duty to affect change, in an original #video: bit.ly/4kVvELn

"A Quantum Leap Forward," by Samuel Greengard, says #scientists may have turned the corner on the #quantum #ErrorCorrection challenge. bit.ly/3TQfvvZ

Code created with #GenAI may include #OpenSource code with restrictive licenses, which could complicate #acquisition #deals for a fledgling #startup, writes Amy Buttell in "Protect Your Code Against Licensing Risks," bit.ly/46r52yB

"Can’t We Have Nice Things?," by George V. Neville-Neil / @Kode_Vicious, describes the tendency in #software to keep piling on features and functions, which is anathema to simplicity and repeatability. bit.ly/44Zu9WQ

"Security Principles for Designing an Unhackable Crypto Wallet," by Elena Gardner, presents core design strategies for building crypto wallets with adversary-resistant architectures. bit.ly/3IxolfH

"The Power and Potential of Zero-Knowledge Proofs," by Sarah Underwood, says that #ZKPs are beginning to move out of the sphere of theoretical #computerscience and nearer to the realm of possibility and practical applications. bit.ly/4nTYtL5

The fundamental mismatch between traditional #distributed #computing paradigms and the unique demands of #AI workloads needs to change; @Deepseek_ai's MOE approach may show the way, says @AkshayMittal143 in "Rethinking Distributed Computing for the AI Era" bit.ly/40Xwpwr

"To Post or Not to Post: AI Ethics in the Age of Big Tech," by Henrik Skaug Sætra (@UniOslo), uses the case of @X to discuss the challenges of AI ethics and what actions for positive change they might entail. bit.ly/45480rw

"Thermodynamic Computing Becomes Cool," by Samuel Greengard, discusses a promising method for energy-efficient, #sustainable #computing. bit.ly/4f8dyVz

"Putting Humans Continually in the AI Loop," by R. Colin Johnson / @NextGenLog, says human-in-the-loop #optimization can produce #AIsystems that progressively shorten the time it takes to learn new skills, flattening the learning curve for successive users bit.ly/44stm1w

"Two Types of Data Privacy Controls," by @EAlashwali (@KAUedu_sa), says that precise, sensible, and easy-to-use terms to differentiate the two intrinsic types of privacy controls will positively impact the accuracy of #privacy #research and discussions. bit.ly/4eXdIio

"Clock Bait: Why The Moon Needs Its Own Time Zone," by @PaulMarks12, notes that clocks tick faster on the Moon, which has potential #colonizer nations looking to get it a dedicated time zone to avoid fatal errors in #lunar #navigation. bit.ly/3GHwCNp

"Quantum Internet Is (Slowly) Becoming a Reality," by Logan Kugler, describes the path to an #Internet operating on #quantum principles, with some very weird, very powerful capabilities. bit.ly/4lO948j

Tim Menzies (@NCState) says that active learning provides a compelling alternative to the 'bigger is better' assumption dominating current thinking about #LLMs and #AI, in "The Case for Compact AI" bit.ly/44oEgWb
