Not mine Lol, tho

can't wait for more of this kind of abundance

“we've learned…they can sometimes become less reliable in long interactions where parts of the model's safety training may degrade” Welp prepare to answer a lot of deposition questions about when & how you learned this and why the product wasn’t pulled before it told a child how to kill himself

ChatGPT not only helped the kid with the planning but it also helped him correct the mistakes he made the first time so he'd get it right when he tried again.

There's no reason not to share data from a systematic literature review, other than cowardice.

I’m over the whole “XXX is just a stunt to distract for YYY…” framing. No it’s not. It’s *all* really bad and it’s not meant to distract, it’s meant to OVERWHELM you with 500 pretty equally bad things so we can’t get organized and fight. PICK. A. LANE. AND. STAY. THERE. This is how we win.

There isn’t a middle ground. You DO have to get political. It IS going to mean “looking like you’re taking a side” because…you do have to take a fucking side. There are lives at stake, a democracy at stake, and the collapse of our society at stake. Reimagine yourself as an activist.

Gavin Newsom suggesting that 25 years of age is too young to transition and agreeing to right-wing entryism of concern trolling about trans people in sports. This is your opposition leader? I will never vote for Gavin Newsom anyone who thinks trans people are actual humans will follow suit.

Once again, if the way some people choose to use their words leads you to reevaluate your opinion on HUMAN RIGHTS, that means human rights were never that important to you to begin with, Jesus H. Christ on a Cracker Barrel

Know that feel

I often talk to international colleagues about how understanding mass shootings in the US is misguided without understanding the larger context of the fact that we just tolerate excess death from **all causes** at a rate that most high income countries do not

Hot take: AI therapy chatbots are medical devices and should be regulated by the FDA.

Good record keeping is the backbone of data management. Every research study should keep a single source of truth regarding what data you collected, what data you did not collect, when and why. datamgmtinedresearch.com/track

“Spending as little tuition as possible on educating students, and (instead) investing in start-ups ... This is why I say the University of Chicago’s leadership and trustees run it as a tax-free technology incubator.” www.compactmag.com/article/the-...

"Preregistration" lumps three distinct practices into one: - Study registration - Protocol - Analysis plans (SAPs) To advance open science, it's critical that we distinguish them. 🌟 🌟 Now in-press paper from Evan Mayo-Wilson, @seangrant.bsky.social, David Moher, me: osf.io/preprints/me...

quick post your mesearch

I think everyone should be paying attention to what payment processors are doing to independent game developers right now. Games have been the testbed for a lot of the shittiest ideas going right now and you better believe this effort will broaden its goals quickly

Transphobes are a public menace.

Ultimately I don’t care about whether the math that is “AI” is is good or bad. What matters is its emergence from, development within, and promotion for the purposes of economic and social programs that are antagonistic to labor, the environment, and human welfare make it a contemptible proposition.

fascist troops marching through our streets dont keep anyone safe and we dont need advice about crime from a guy with a rape charge and dozens of fraud convictions — stay strong and stay free dc 🥖

Yeah, I was in DC twice in July and first off, there isn't a more policed city in all of the country. Second, I didn't feel unsafe at all...and I was walking all over as a small-statured, single woman. Anyway, HI HELLO! THIS IS FASCISM! Hope that helps!

Me, yesterday night, signing lease to move to Baltimore from DC: Oh boy, I'm so excited to live closer to friends Me, today:

I think about this post several times a week

I call this the reverse Turing Test. If an LLM is producing something passable, it doesn't mean the tool is intelligent, it means humans were being asked to write something meaningless

So expand the lanes! The problem is bikes and pedestrians fighting over like 12% of street space when the vast majority is dedicated to cars

EVERY cat? There are some concerning candidates.

*young me, developing a strong sense of justice* This is gonna be great, what an asset, this will never drive me insane

I will be interviewing for a clinical psychology PhD student in the Precision Psychopathology + Dynamic Immunopsychiatry Lab this interview cycle. Please see our website for more info about what we do + share with applicants you think might be a good fit. share.google/uJRyS3NY9Kdo...

I don't even agree with the quoted stance I get the sorta thing it's pointing to but also, let's be real, there is 0% chance that those people had any causal sway on RFK Jnr or helped him rise to power, in fact they mostly hate him and I am sure the feeling is mutual.

Individual difference nerds are all

The fact that the one game made by an explicitly communist co-op game studio now has three successor studios making a self-proclaimed sequel to it, and dispute the legitimacy of the other two is, of course, the most communist outcome possible.

Hi folks! Want to reintroduce a thing I'm leading at @cos.io: the Registered Revisions (meta) Trial. This project about new peer review policy and a WILD new way of doing actionable evidence generation via RCTs. A LOT of RCTs. Now piloted and ready for the main stage, and looking for partners! 🧵👇

and of course "please define your estimand" is just "what is your research question" with more precision. every applied statistician's favourite conversation!

“6% of sleuths agreed that current reporting channels for misconduct are effective, compared to 77% of research-integrity officers” I think this is readily explainable by the differential access to information. RIOs do not see what doesn’t even reach them, eg when editors refuse to act.

Exactly my first thought seeing d = 8: "No effect size shall exceed the preference for chocolate over poop"

do you guys understand that the internet really got going right as I was a sophomore in high school and if anyone ever did this to me, I would be excommunicated from polite society? the fact that this is the worst dirt they found and they still published the article is INSANE
