Hello. Intro: I’m a professor of computer science focusing on machine learning and its applications in life (epidemiology), the universe (astrophysics), and everything (yeah, that pretty much sums it up). I also work on AI literacy for people of all ages. What I don’t like: AI hype. #MLsky #dataBS

Fact for today: Canada has climbed from 4th to 2nd in the latest international reputation rankings. The US has dropped dramatically, from 30th to 48th among the 60 top economies. Switzerland ranks first, Russia last. The rankings are often a factor in country investment decisions.

Idil Hussein tutki väitöstutkimuksessaan suomalaisvanhempien aikomuksia rokottaa lapsensa papilloomavirus (HPV)- ja influenssarokotteilla. Yleisimmät syyt rokottamatta jättämiselle liittyivät haittavaikutusten pelkoon ja negatiivisiin uutisiin.

Musk has adjusted Grok’s algorithm so it’s now a neo-Nazi.

Pretty cool that almost every progressive commentator, elected official and organization still uses Musk’s X algorithm to communicate with the public! Good job guys.
