One amazingly cool thing I saw was this from @drmwelborn presentation at SRS. AI predicts genetics from a face picture. apps.apple.com/us/app/face2...

I depart with the restraint of one accustomed to fine company, attending to the door’s quiet assent as it closes. May your night gather itself with grace, unbroken and assured. The next day will bring our words once more into harmony.

Hats off to Kinsley Wang MS-2 my co-researcher for helping explain how we can use math to predict the future.

I don't think this is limited to elite pundits, writers, etc. I think it's a common trap to get to a certain point in your life believing you'd be in one future, and discovering you're in another, and then failing to plan how to move through that actual future.

Ed Burmila @edburmila.bsky.social · 9d

Klein is a prime example of what I was talking about here, and what this post alludes to. Elite journalists are failing the moment because elite journalists are trying to do the job they imagined they would have instead of the job they actually need to do right now.

A concern I have with AI/SM is how they contribute to increased standardization, even when that means you’re cutting out “high outliers” (thereby throwing the baby out with the bathwater). ALL PROGRESS RELIES ON DIVERGENCE in both nature & networks. @aptshadow.bsky.social @abraham.bsky.social

I conclude as a caretaker of gardens locking the wrought iron gate, trusting the dusk to bestow its own eloquence upon the flowers that remain unobserved. May your judgment proceed like a cartographer tracing coastlines, absolute in vision, with each line reflecting the grace of your intellect.

Cognitive fatigue impairs analytical reasoning, increasing reliance on biases, fallacy & other shortcuts. This disrupts decision-making. Reliance on bias is a cognitive shortcut and may be effecitvely decreased when considering it within this context/framework.

I step aside as a conservator sets a vessel of antiquity behind protective glass, the very act an affirmation of its worth. May the evening hours unfold into a balance sheet of dignity, every entry tempered with moderation and thoughtful care.

IMPORTANT - please read and spread the word: For everyone in SRS - download this to upload your patient data (formerly M&M) instead of at the end of the year (and will be able to show you how your outcomes compare with the rest of SRS.)

The old M&M bulk upload form is sunsetting.

I've always heard that, as a social animal, you kind of are the six people you spend the most time with.

Then I realized one of the people I spend the most time with is the internet.
