With I. Tkalec & @lr-bg.bsky.social, we are convening a workshop on "Machine learning, natural language processing and large language models for policy issues" at the 5th International Workshops on Public Policy ( #IWPP5) of the #IPPA in #Ottawa 6–8 July www.ippapublicpolicy.org/conference/i... 1/3

This video from Fairmount Bagels in Montreal from their Instagram is the most impressive thing I've ever seen

A very good time spent at the #IPPA #ICPP7 conference, especially on our panel on computational methods for public policy organized with @lr-bg.bsky.social and Igor Tkalec! 1/2

Excellent new policy brief from my colleague Dr. Michelle Bussière-Prytula diagnosing the democratic deficit in Saskatchewan's public education policy landscape: www.schoolofpublicpolicy.sk.ca/research-ide...

In the US, they’ve scrapped the rule to consult the public before repealing regulations. Up here, our government is gearing up to fast-track big projects. Speed’s great, but skipping the people most affected? That comes with a cost. I put my two cents into the debate at @policyoptions.irpp.org.

Thrilled to share this new article I co-authored with Megan Linton! We explore the ways that Canadian disability housing policy is 'haunted' by systemic ableism. Read it to discover how Canada continues to exclude, eliminate and extract from people with disabilities through supported housing.

De l' #OMS, l'@inspq.qc.ca, l'@inesss.qc.ca, l'ASPC quelle organisation dispose de la plus grande crédibilité dans les médias canadiens? Comment mesurer la crédibilité scientifique attribuée à ces organisations? Si vous êtes intéressé.e.s, j'apporterai des réponses préliminaires à l' #ACFAS 👇

Why I think 🇨🇦 shouldn’t - and won’t - become an 🇪🇺 member. Spoiler: in my piece, it’s all about the provinces. Full text here: www.ecsa-c.ca/post/canada-... Merci @fredericmerand.bsky.social d’avoir lancé, et @achimhurrelmann.bsky.social de coordonner ce débat !

I know these people. The third author is a bit shady, but the others are very smart and solid scholars! You should check it out.

Fascinating how those AI geniuses ended up relying on the good old dictionary approach. #NLP
