Had a long phone convo with a friend yesterday and later saw they added new collections to @semble.so based on the call. Now I followed some of those collections and can continue vicariously learning from whatever they learn. Collective sensemaking is fun and magical ✨

Sensemaking standards vary, uh, widely
After many years of scientific publishing, it's so wild to me that think tanks put out studies with tons of undisclosed modeling assumptions and zero path for other people to reproduce their results, and... media take them seriously? Sorry, but graphs and stats do not signify truth. Show your work!

This is so much of what scares me about LLMs. Sensemaking is a group project
You may think you’re immune to bad information, but are you immune to bad information absorbed and regurgitated by the people you trust? Can you keep yourself from spinning out because of it? It seems hard!

I've already gotten rid of a good 90% of it due to not listening to podcasts or reading pundits. The last 10%, when they do something so ridiculous (e.g. today's Dana White mess) that normal sensemaking doesn't feel like an adequate response, is going to be hard.

I appreciate the interpretation.
Sensemaking is a useful learning experience. (But hindsight is annoying).

Great framing. Sensemaking is where AI's speed does the most damage, because the pause is where a team checks its assumptions. Leaders who build that check into the process keep it when the clock speeds up.

A remarkable aspect of Holub's poem’s life is that it forms the centrepiece of a documented case of plagiarism on the part of organisation theorist Karl 'sensemaking' Weick.

Agree with @mims.bsky.social the *cultures* of social sites have balkanized, I think the idea that you have to spend time in an information environment that is actively hostile to sensemaking is ridiculous, though.

What if our ideas could creak or complain or get excited when we develop them?
What if we could (really) feel the weight/strength/weaknesses of our arguments as we build them? And let that drive our sensemaking?
We're excited to share a demo exploring this at #UIST2026 !

The demo is part of a larger exploration of "sense-able sensemaking" driven by Siyi Zhu, laid out first in this pictorial from C&C last year. We're excited to imagine with you a more humane future of embodied scholarly sensemaking.
