@MaziyarPanahi @OpenMed_AI @huggingface @NVIDIAAIDev Thanks!

@bwang482 @OpenMed_AI @huggingface @NVIDIAAIDev you are welcome! it should work on some common ones, but it will fail on most cases. it was trained on heavy English, i am working on other languages. if you happen to have or known Swedish and Finnish datasets for PII detection, let me know and i can quickly train some models

🚨 OpenMed just mass-released 35 state-of-the-art PII detection models to the open-source community! All Apache 2.0. All free. Forever. 🍀 Here's what @OpenMed_AI built and why it matters for healthcare AI safety. Supporting HIPAA, GDPR, and beyond. Thread 🧵👇

The Center for Suicide Research and Prevention is seeking Fall 2025 student interns! 💻 Hybrid (in-person & virtual) 📅 Start: Fall 2025 🌍 Open to all students – no prior research experience required 🔗 Learn more: csrp.mgh.harvard.edu/jobs/ 📝 Apply now: redcap.partners.org/redcap/surveys…

Our new paper on continuous-time, dynamic suicide attempt risk prediction is now published online at @npjDigitalMed. Using a large-scale electronic health records database, we adapt neural ODEs—naturally suited for modeling evolving latent states like suicidal tendencies and handling irregularly-spaced temporal data such as healthcare records—to address two key limitations of existing methods: static risk scoring and reliance on healthcare visits, which create critical gaps in risk assessment (figure). Thank you and @jorsmo, @bwang482, and @MGHPrecisionPsy for the amazing support and teamwork!

@honnibal @spacy_io 💙

I'm getting back to hands-on @spacy_io development. We raised money in 2021, but building a venture-backed company isn't quite like building a library. I hate how vaguely these things are usually discussed, so I wrote a long post: honnibal.dev/blog/back-to-o…

@Serena_pancakes Congrats!

🌿Officially: I’m excited to join the DBMI at CU Anschutz this September as assistant professor! 🏔️ Can’t wait to see the sparkles fly when NLP meets cutting-edge healthcare and medical research at CU Anschutz. Look forward to new collaborations and innovations!

@jordanschneider 🤦‍♂️

What a joke. if biden is already pulling this shit, imagine how bad it will get for trump 2.0. an underappreciated long term trump effect is how he will scare off the next generation of S&T talent

@BioNLProc Amazing! Congrats!

Got news today that my Fulbright Scholar application has been selected for funding for 2024-2025! I will focus on AI for healthcare in India, broadly speaking. Most likely host is the IISc. Dates/final details to be decided later. Happy to visit/collaborate with folks in India.

@OxPsychiatry @RachelUTG @OxHealthBRC Congrats!!

We are really looking forward to welcoming @RachelUTG to the Dept of Psychiatry in the summer. Prof Upthegrove is an internationally recognised clinical academic bringing a wealth of skills and experience to this key leadership role in the dept and @OxHealthBRC

@ruima Contrarian not; acquisition of specific social skills is very much valued by schools with sufficient resources, e.g. the British public schools (in both good and bad way). The real question is how socialization (of children) can be guided and improved with little resources.

I have lots of contrarian views but one that comes up a lot recently is re: socialization. Of children primarily, but really we are talking about parents' hope for their kids to be socially adept (shorthand for well-liked and accepted and hopefully comfortable and unanxious amongst other humans, etc.) for the rest of their lives. I fundamentally disagree that socialization is something that primarily (and magically) improves with exposure. I think it is like language acquisition -- we already have an innate ability to do it in the sense that we have certain areas of the brain that evolved especially for it, and like almost everything else, this means that there is generally a prime learning window for it, but aside from a basic level of ability, to develop a superior skill level at it requires guided learning, just like almost everything else in life. Throwing kids (or adults) in repeated social situations and just hoping that they "figure it out" isn't the way to go. Exposure is necessary but insufficient. Reflection, at first guided (by the parent or mentors or even books), and increasingly self-initiated, is needed. That's how I transitioned from an awkward, early career excel monkey who got poor reviews on social skills to being always complimented for my business development skills. It's all acquired with intentional learning and reflection, just like almost every other skill in life. When I talk about how I plan to home (or really, use alternative methods) to school my child, socialization is the first thing that comes up. But it seems that only one kind of socialization is accepted -- the one where you go to a place and interact only with peers of your same age +/- 1 year in the neighborhood for 7 hours a day sitting down in rows for years on end. Bad behavior is punished but there is no real intentional guidance for acquiring specific social skills. I think this is arbitrary and neutral most of the time, very occasionally helpful by luck, and actively detrimental at worst (many cases of friends' children who were bullied and became seriously depressed or worse). Thoughts?

@rich_lynna31339 @jschunter @alexjc I have read the reporting in Chinese and the ruling does say "防范程度应达到：用户正常使用与奥特曼相关的提示词，不能生成与案涉奥特曼作品实质性相似的图片" which essentially means measures have to be taken so Ultraman-related content cannot be generated by its users

Chinese AI generated outputs similar to protected works, "suggesting" the original was used in training. Award of $1,400 in damages & court fees.⚖️ Landmark Ruling? Unless companies can prove they did not train on a protected work to counter prima facie evidence, they're liable.

@jschunter @alexjc Is the correct interpretable from this ruling that if you make your model available to your users, you need to make sure infringing output cannot be generated by any prompt one can think of?

@alexjc Read the ruling. It had nothing to do with AI training, only with a specific output being too similar to an original work. It’s what AI advocates been (correctly IMO) arguing all along: You can sue against infringing outputs, but AI training is not a copyright event.
