I tried that instant AI translation tool (https://t.co/FXcqohlwuq) and it's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.

I gave it a 35 second video of me speaking English.

And this is what I got - that's my voice! But I don't speak a word of German...

Not sure about “good test” as you could probably model that. Still. Such a lovely-looking, coded-coded example of rhythm in language. #oddlysatisfying

[Guillermo Rauch @rauchg]

A good test for AI is whether it can write something of this quality.

Not just monotonic information conveyance, but taking the reader on a journey.

But hold on! This is just half of it!

There's a path from Africa to Europe, through Malta/Sicily/Italy

Water levels are high there—the Sicilian Sill
It stopped the waters of the West Mediterranean
Until it couldn't

@BrentWRoberts @Psych_Writer Headline aside, could IIV be considered a personality dimension? And if so, would it be captured by emotional stability / neuroticism?

Check out this preprint & shiny app (https://t.co/YTogVvKL33) that @SchiavoneSays made, to help w/ identifying threats to validity (construct, internal, external, & statistical conclusion)! It was great working with Sarah & @kimberlyquinn on this, and we hope it’s useful to many!
