AI always calling your ideas “fantastic” can feel inauthentic, but what are sycophancy’s deeper harms? We find that in the common use case of seeking AI advice on interpersonal situations—specifically conflicts—sycophancy makes people feel more right & less willing to apologize.

Generative AI for disease trajectories. Cool idea, trained on a big datasets from the UK biobank and validated on large Danish cohorts. Interesting potential for public health, predicting future incidence of all disease well into the future.

Simple advice on choosing research projects
This video has been a long time coming. It reflects my thoughts on how to wisely choose which projects to work on, balancing the risk, reward, and work required.

Statements like "X% of jobs (with some large X) can be done by AI." are less statements about the capabilities of AI than about the fraction of bullshit jobs in that person's visible universe.

Welcome to another episode of "you get what you pay for" when it comes to unpaid peer review 😉
Ramblings of a mad AC
1. If you're reviewing a benchmarks and dataset paper, you should look at the dataset and make sure it's not full of garbage.
2. Biological datasets are especially prone to subtle garbage.

Is anyone planning on going to ISMB in Washington DC next year?
I suspect Europeans will prioritize ECCB, Canadians and many others may avoid the US too, and my friends in the US may not have the funding to go. I cannot help but worry for the conference.

Unexpectedly, @jurgjn.bsky.social found that running Alphafold3 predictions for protein interactions can yield ipTM scores that are more predictive of true interactions when run in pools of proteins instead of pairwise predictions. Presumably, this reflects some sort of "competition effect".

I in principle like the live subtitling of presentations at #ISMBECCB2025, but it gets a bit distracting when "cell line" consistently becomes "saline" and "LoRA" becomes "Laura" 😉
