I’m Vivian Mills, a writer and researcher exploring the evolving conversation between culture and artificial intelligence.
My background spans literary theory, data operations, and technical program management—threads that converge in my work on annotation ethics, multilingual model development, and the aesthetics of algorithmic systems. I write with the belief that critical theory still matters in a world reshaped by machine learning.
This site is a home for essays that don’t quite fit into white papers or LinkedIn updates—meditations on liminality, memory, labor, and the strange poetry of prompts and parameters. My aim isn’t to predict the future of AI, but to listen more closely to the present as it unfolds in many voices.
You’ll find pieces here that blend the archival with the speculative, the structural with the personal. Welcome.
