Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
Cuando decidí empezar el doctorado, muchos me advirtieron sobre los “supervisores”, y la gran presión que les ponen, lo difícil que es navegar tensiones y así. Lamento informarles que el mío resulta ser el mejor del mundo 🥹🫶🏻. Me gané la lotería de supervisores 😭.

Data is not "just data". Data is a construction, a technical and a cultural construction, and so it can (and often it does) embed ethical and political judgments. https://t.co/HkmrHaMeUp
NEW: People are developing antisocial and obsessive behavior after using AI — some have even taken their own lives.
One journalist started getting emails from people in mental health crisis after using AI.
She dug in, and found companies putting profits over users' lives.
The more girls in a class, the merrier.
Data on 87k students: In cohorts with more girls, boys and girls have better mental health. More female peers predicts closer friendships for boys—and better body image & STEM grades for girls.

I fear the public will never truly realize the immense damage done to our scientific research system and its consequences. A loss of ~$4.5 billion in frozen or cancelled grants with at least 148 impacted clinical trials = 138,000 patients due to be enrolled or already enrolled.
SCIENCE: Research published in PLOS Medicine finds that loneliness is a stronger risk factor for death than physical inactivity and obesity and is equivalent in its effect to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
Daily connection builds a healthier worldview.
Data: When people have regular positive interactions with others who matter to them, they see the world as a better place a year later—and have lower depression and higher well-being.
Strong ties are an antidote to alienation.
Have never received so many calls and text messages about autism as today… phone is blowing up,
And questions about Tylenol and sunlight and vitamin K… and inflammation.
And many of those Qs from colleagues…
Wild times in public health comms!
Men become more caring when they become girldads.
Data on >12k CEOs: After having a firstborn daughter, men spend 10% more on social responsibility initiatives—especially culture, inclusion, and the environment. They also pay female employees better.
Daughters activate empathy.
Enserio que no me lo creo, me siento tan feliz y orgullosa de haber llegado al lugar de mis sueños, recibiendo las clases que siempre había querido, con proyectos que ni me imaginé. Desvelarme y andar así de cansada es un privilegio.
#DATOS I 😧 La diabetes mata más guatemaltecos que los asesinatos, los accidentes o el cáncer.

TikTok science can leave you overconfident in your knowledge.
Evidence: Simplifying complex ideas makes them more compelling, but also fosters an illusion of deep understanding.
Beware of mistaking familiarity for fluency. Soundbites aren't substitutes for systematic study.
