the reproducibility crisis in research, frankly of most all fields, is not just an existential threat to the validity of the science itself but also a threat for any such paper to be translated into something used in the real world. it's a threat for our work to make a difference and needs addressed
this is actually something that makes my blood boil. at least for all of my life, women have talked about how rampant pedophilia is and yet folks are acting like this is the first time they've heard about it
Meta analyses but instead of using real data, we just use what the hallucination machine thought might be what someone could think
watching a video about it, it seems the main AI feature is just finding recipes and checking the internal temp.
The other problem with the usage of LLMs and it hallucinating is that it makes us distrusting of citations in the wild. I was reading a paper today that quoted something and since I couldn't immediately find the quote, my first thought was it was hallucinated.
The justices have rejected a petition from Kim Davis, the Kentucky county clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples in the state a decade ago. https://bit.ly/3XpQfOA
Gosh if only there were some like medical intervention that can decrease your risks of contracting measles and was also really safe. If such a thing were to exist, surely we'd all take it and not spread conspiracy theories about such technology
are you really trying to fat shame data centers? so much for the tolerant left
The thing is is that pink news has spread misinformation numerous times. and just like how I wish the government would crack down on Fox News for spreading misinformation, I think pink news needs to get that crack down too
I would love to understand why people use AI for wikipedia. Like they want a page to exist but don't want the effort of doing it? I just cannot comprehend. If I want to create something, I do it. And if i don't, i take that to mean that i don't really want it which is ok.
I'm sorry
no, not drugs. vaccines. we want the jab. all the jabs. vaccine
could you imagine how good and stable internet and phones could be if 100% of our bill went to actually supporting the infrastructure instead of trying to make some rich folks richer
using a pomodoro timer, but taking a 8 hour nap between each work interval
lol based on her message, I assumed she was talking about like snap or other government assistance, not crypto
I'm finishing up my lecture notes right now, but wow, this is actually really challenging to figure out what's the least amount of information to share to really get the message across
I was asked to guest lecture for an undergrad software engineering class to teach about software testing. Which is an interesting challenge. How do I condense a decade of experience into just 2 weeks of lecture so as to impart onto all the young people how and why we should test

today he used it to tell him how to create and push a branch in git. he's done this several times so I have to assume he does this everyday #LLMOverreliance
oh no. gods forbid a politician promise to make the world better. how awful
this should not be news to anyone who pays attention. The far right will say things that are relatable every now and then to pull in more people to fall into the alt-right pipeline.
one of my classmates used an LLM to come up with a shorter file name for a document #LLMOverreliance
Watching a student repeatedly probe chatgpt to write for him and then copy the text into an AI detector and seeing it all shows as AI. he's spent more time talking to chatgpt than it would take to just write it himself
Screenshot of an email that opens with "Dear Dr. Teal Amore:"
You know back in my day, when people got an honorary doctorate, they were told about it. But apparently I just got one lol

milk?
I'm begging CS students to stop treating every class project as an opportunity to build a startup. you can just make a project for class and that be it. no it doesn't need to be the next unicorn
I don't understand how you can fully endorse someone for president and not know the basics of their policies.
wow. look at that self own
you ever think about how much duplication of research or lost insights there are because English speakers only ever read research that's in English? #academicsky
bet. i'll be there :)
I haven't but google tells me where it is. are we doing this 👉👈
