Learning activities in class engage participating students in experiences of mindful relaxation, personal growth, regulating emotions, positivity, and sharing stories of struggle and strength with peers. Self-reflection, self-expression and self-compassion are balanced with uplifting interactions and deepening connections in an inclusive and affirming group environment.

New capabilities of language and diffusion models enable applications that interact with users across different modalities, perform independent actions, and leverage external tools. In the seminar, we will study how these capabilities create new privacy and security challenges by analyzing recent papers in ML and S&P communities and connecting discovered problems to fundamental issues from previous decades. As part of the course there will be an opportunity to conduct a research project that goes deeper into these problems.
