If you're in San Antonio tomorrow, 2:30 PM Friday, please join us at @uchicagopress booth #303 at ASSA, for a giveaway of BETTER HEALTH ECONOMICS. We’ll have fifty copies on hand, first come, first serve. There will also be drinks, depending on Texas law and conference rules.

@atlaz_chugged @abhishekn No plugin, just ChatGPT plus. It now accepts uploaded images as inputs.

@MalloryAvery16 @essobecker That was my first attempt. Didn't work that great, but it was worth a shot.
