Went to the capital w/ my son and a few 100 others to #StandUpForScience. He talked to two geneticists, a political scientist, an academic union rep, a mass spec salesperson w/ a PhD, a computational biologist, a behavioral biologist, and a person in a frog costume who 100% studies frogs in a lab.

This year's tourney is a bit different: which Division I NCAA team will be the first to go under b/c their institution and students are casualties of Republicans' assault on Federal government and higher ed? Grand Canyon w/ $1.3b in debt? Clemson and their $194m athletics program? Place your bets!

Great day with @abeba.bsky.social on "Generative AI: sparks of AGI or glorified copy-paste machines?".
With the receipts, an argument on the errors, values, and problems of LLMs, plus, let the record show that AGI, “[is] always three years away.” (ca 1958, 1970, 2023).
