I asked my ChatGPT what I should tell an audience in Montreal about sexual health for my presentation. It said, “Tell them to stay away from French kissing.” Nice one, GPT. @grok what do you think I should say?

For 1st time EVER, I’m hearing MANY scientists talking the need to increase innovation and REAL-WORLD impact and value in their science. Saying they can’t rely only on federal funds anymore— need more creativity. I’m trying to see the positive, and see it.

@BaptisteVicini Where does he also say 10 years to end all diseases? I heard him say “one day.”

INSIGHT #4: Hassabis also predicts a potential end to all diseases within 10 years. Why? Because DeepMind's AlphaFold AI model won a Nobel Prize for predicting 200 million protein structures in 1 year. Previously, this would have taken decades.

Google DeepMind's CEO just stunned 60 Minutes viewers. The Nobel prize winner revealed: • An AI that can see and understand in real-time • A plan to end ALL diseases in 10 years • Exactly when AI will surpass human intelligence Here are his 4 most jaw-dropping insights:🧵

@SeanYoungPhD The video is not avalable in Canada. What is it?

Human intelligence & reasoning rapidly decreased in just the last 15 years. The way we consume digital information and use digital tools seems to be the problem. Let’s use digital tools not just to get answers, but to learn. instagram.com/reel/DHsnYaRBi…

I’m starting a new podcast and newsletter on the psychology of inspiring kids to be passionate about learning and entrepreneurship. It’s focused on helping parents, families, and educators Find it @YoungandHungryK_12 on IG!!

@elonmusk Yes science can be frustrating— for various reasons, our committees designed to share scientific findings to the public are often created based on political ideology

Wow

@social_brains I remember Bob Zajonc saying he began studying things that really irritated him. Maybe you can use this frustration and your influence for change. lead/unite us and many of us will join you. let’s put social psych to the test by developing interventions to fight the bias.

When 80% of your campus grad students votes for an anti-Semitic strike, maybe it’s time for me to hang up research and stop training students. The very best I can come up with is that they are profoundly misinformed about the history and uninterested in learning more. Other attributions are much worse. Right now I don’t feel like having anything to do with UCLA.

Medical LLMs preferred over doctors for texting about medical info? @Google blind tested 149 actors playing patients. They texted live with either a primary care doctor or Google medical LLM, AMIE. AMIE won. blog.research.google/2024/01/amie-r…

@operatattler it’s your neighbor down the street from growing up. So glad you’ve kept music a big part of your life :)

@theNASEM @CDCgov Lizzi Torrone gives an overview on surveillance reporting and problems controlling STIs

@theNASEM Amy Geller giving the opening words for the hackathon

I feel honored to have helped w/ @theNAMedicine @NASEM_Health hackathon on solutions to reduce sexually transmitted infections, based on our committee’s report. This Thursday! June 22-23 in Irvine, CA. @UCIrvine @UCIrvineHealth Info + Sign up: nam.edu/STIHackathon

@AdamMancini4 With FBDs, if needed to ensure 1:1 R/R, do you buy less than 8-10 pts above low (for example buy only 4 points above low), or just skip the trade and wait for better R/R with 8-10 points above?

After Tuesdays 4k failed breakdown to trigger longs in #ES_F, it is up 100 points in 2 days with no dip. This continues *until a support fails*, and 1st test is now 4070 remains support, 4085 res. Bulls must hold 4070 to keep run going to 4100. 4070 fails, we dip finally 4048

My prediction: Cities that vote to defund the police or strongly oppose police will be offset with the first “robocops. See San Francisco theverge.com/2022/11/23/234…
