 Semra Fetahovic | X is updated: https://x.com/GOATech_org feel free to repost or whatever they call it nowadays! :) | 12:59:37 |
| Semra Fetahovic | What do people think about us having a presence on LinkedIn? I kind of hate LinkedIn most of the time because it's become so social media-y but I think it would be a great way to spread the word about the organization and would give folks a sense for what kind of people participate in GOAT. | 15:31:55 |
| Juliet | I have no thoughts, I don't use LinkedIn. | 16:28:15 |
 paul121 | Same... LinkedIn has gotten pretty bad IMO | 16:30:05 |
| paul121 | But I acknowledge that we can't just not have a presence! There are good ppl on linkedin for sure | 16:30:41 |
| paul121 | Seems like a good thing for an individual "subcommittee member" who's more happy with LinkedIn to take on? | 16:31:19 |
 gbathree | Hey guys. We're making a quick test application using AI to take images across a farm, extract the objects in them, and store them in a database. The idea is for people working on farms to quickly ask and know where things are - in short an automated asset inventorying system. We're wanting to name it and want everyone's opinions. Here's the options:
find my stuff
find farm stuff
The Barn Remembers
where is my
find the forklift
wheres the wheelbarrow
what, where, when
where in the wheelbarrow
or add your idea...
Reply in-thread and add your favorite or top 3, or alternatives you preferThanks!

 symbioquine | "AI Spy my Farm Stuff" 😆 | 20:50:50 |
| symbioquine | The CLIP models are really impressive. They power the search in the self-hosted photo server Immich and so far I've been very pleased with the utility of being able to search for "tree" or "engine", "plumbing", etc within my photos. | 20:53:57 |
| gbathree | Actually really like "I Spy" | 22:02:59 |
| symbioquine | Not sure if you'd need to worry about trademark for the "I Spy" books... (IANAL) | 22:05:04 |
| symbioquine | Maybe "AI Spy" is enough different 🤔 | 22:05:53 |
| 22 Aug 2024 |
| symbioquine | Not to be a drag, but I just noticed that there's a couple issues with this page: https://goatech.org/2024/07/08/goat-2024-program/
- The link to "Link to the Methods Zine" (https://aginformaticslab.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Methods-Zine.pdf) is broken
- The "Program Details" are unpopulated - maybe this just needs a new date since August the 9th is already past...
| 16:55:20 |
| gbathree | yes program details is TBD, we're working on that now (we have a draft but not done). The other one is a bug for sure sudokita I think that's your zine could you take a look? | 16:59:53 |

| Semra Fetahovic | Hi everyone! Please continue to promote GOAT 2024 - the application deadline is nearing! (although we may extend but don't tell people that yet). If you have any contacts at universities (agriculture / computer science / both) that we could promote the event to - feel free to share a contact and I will get it done! If you have any general outreach suggestions, let me know too and I'll see what I can do :) | 20:44:22 |
| Semra Fetahovic | Also if you yourself are interested but haven't applied...please do so by Friday! Application review begins next week :) | 20:44:42 |

 riotmiked | Quick question about the last push for applications (I still need to get mine in! 😬). Would it be appropriate for an actual producer to attend, given the program? I would not like to recommend a rancher attend if they're not getting much out of it (besides, maybe, providing end user perspective if that motivates them). | 01:08:34 |
| Semra Fetahovic | riotmiked: they should DEFINITELY apply. I think once we see the pool of applicants, we can see if there's enough producer interest to create some more producer-focused sessions | 14:22:29 |
| Semra Fetahovic | riotmiked: get that application in!!! :) | 14:23:09 |
| Semra Fetahovic | Has anyone shared anything on Facebook about GOAT 2024? (I don't use FB except for Marketplace lolol) I have someone in the community that wants to repost! If you have something - send it my way :) | 15:28:13 |
| Juliet | I don't use facebook. | 18:17:11 |
| paul121 | Even if they repost on FB I think it will just get lost in the ads... sorry :-) | 22:08:00 |
| paul121 | But we have the nice artwork and retro-digital flyer. That and a link to the website would be a nice FB post? Can they post? | 22:09:02 |
| 28 Aug 2024 |
| Semra Fetahovic | I was actually just thinking: if anyone in the GOAT community has a decent social following on Meta (individual, organization, company, whatever) it might be worth spending like $100 on ads. Any thoughts on who that might be? I'll let em know to just create a post for their personal FB@ | 01:44:39 |
| gbathree | Yes | 10:08:47 |
| 29 Aug 2024 |
| Semra Fetahovic | In reply to @gbathree:matrix.org
Yes ok who would that be? a person or org? i think it would work really well. sorry for delayed response we flew into NYC yesterday! let me know how i can help make this happen :) | 14:59:28 |
