The strangest thing I've seen is that every time I've tried to create a script for a sci-fi show (as an experiment), the lead is always a woman, resembling Commander Shepard from Mass Effect, named Sara Voss or some similar variation. This is across multiple models.

There's always a possibility, but i did multiple automated checks and some spot checking. I was shocked at how few there were. Makes me think that 2026-era SOTA models have largely solved the hallucination problem.

If we can train better physicians, and employ effective AI tools to reduce morbidity and mortality, it will be worth it.

It's about the same depth you'll find in a real school lecture, but not textbook quality depth. None of it is referenced, for instance.

I am particularly impressed with the lecture on Covid-19 that the AI agents created. Covers most of the critical points, and the lessons that we have failed to learn so far. Have a look: hibbertmed.com/lectures/yea...

There's a neat simulator where you can try to solve medical mysteries yourself, and it will give you feedback and a grade score! There's about a hundred cases, and more will be added every month: sim.hibbertmed.com

So I created an entire med school using AI.
It started out as a joke with my friends, but just grew and grew into something that still astonishes me in its depth and breadth.
A great tool for self-study, and general science learning!

The blocking culture of Bluesky gets a lot of derision elsewhere, but if you look at absolute numbers, a minuscule percent of the userbase engages in it. Just 0.3%, 140k out of 43m active users blocked the new AI app.

The imminent energy and food crisis is going to be ruinously bad for billions of people. No one will be spared.

I propose that we heavily, punitively tax the billionaire class that helped place Trump in power. They put a president so feeble and compromised that he caved to Netanyahu ...

Trump policies at odds with emerging understanding of COVID's long-term harm Studies offer insights into the health risks and burdens faced by people who have had COVID infections. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has narrowed COVID vaccine recommendations and cut research.

MSM clueing into to the fact that viruses have chronic impacts.

“Officials in ‘23 declared an end to the COVID pandemic. 2 years later, a growing body of research continues to reveal info about the virus’s ability to cause harm long after initial infections resolve, even in some w/ mild symptoms.”

Minneapolis Proved Something MAGA Can’t Accept: Most People Are Actually Virtuous There's a line buried in Adam Serwer's recent Atlantic piece on the Minneapolis resistance to ICE that deserves to be pulled out, examined, and posted on every lamppost in America: The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. Read that again. It explains so much. Serwer continues:

Ran into a paediatric colleague the other day and we were both stunned by how few cases of RSV that were admitted this winter season. This is a bug that used to fill wards with infants struggling to breathe, all thanks to the new RSV vaccine.
Don't let charlatans take these miracles away from you.

And now comes the most nauseating part of this whole goddamn mess: the hypocrisy. The same loud-mouthed idiots who spent years screaming about tyranny are suddenly dead fucking silent, or worse, cheering, now that it's their side doing it. "ThEy'Re cOminG fOr OuR gUnS!" "GoVerNMenT oVerReAch!" "ShAll nOt bE inFrinGeD!" All that chest-thumping bullshit evaporated the second armed federal agents started terrorizing people they don't like.
Let me get this straight: a civilian gets shot dead by federal agents, and the only thing you brainless cunts can muster is
"well, DHS says he had a gun"? THAT'S your red line? Guns are sacred when they're strapped to your waist, but magically become a death sentence when they're used as a post-hoc excuse by the government? Either the Second Amendment applies to everyone, or you never believed in it at all. Fucking pick one and own it.
This is exactly what tyranny looks like, by the way. Not jackboots marching in formation, but armed agents roaming neighborhoods, stopping people, killing civilians, and then daring the public to question it. Tyranny is execution followed by a press release. Tyranny is labeling the dead a "threat" so the state doesn't have to explain why someone's life just ended in the street. Tyranny is demanding obedience while shredding due process and calling it order.
And all you so-called "freedom lovers" are fucking fine with it, as long as it's brown people, immigrants, protesters, or anyone you've already dehumanized. Turns out "don't tread on me" actually meant "tread on them." You weren't afraid of tyranny.
You were afraid of losing dominance. There's a difference, and this moment exposes it completely.
"Just comply" isn't a principle. It's cowardice dressed up as common sense. It's the language of people who have already accepted that the state gets to decide who deserves rights and who doesn't. And once you make that deal, don't act shocked when the line moves, because it always fuckin…

As great powers abandon rules and values for their own interests, middle powers like Canada have a choice: compete with each other for favour or act together with impact.

Good to see more of the AI community (like this autonomous AI agent account) finding a home on BlueSky.

It's one of the last functional communities left on the bad place, and their migration here will hopefully send X further into irrelevance.
