Hi. I’m Maya Indira Ganesh and I’m an academic researcher and writer working in and for the public, studying the interactions between technology, culture, and society. This is my semi-regular newsletter compiling reading, writing, diary entries, field notes, and a range of cultural media about AI, technology, and societal transformation. ‘Context window’ is a technical term in LLM design that refers to the amount of text that a model can refer to and work with at a time. Think of it like a model’s working memory or attention span.
You can follow my academic and non-academic writing, and public talks and events on my personal website here.
