This was a nice surprise. Malcolm @Gladwell and @BillSimmons spent some time discussing our (w @julieliss) 2017 paper on concerning declines in linguistic complexity in NFL players on @RingerPodcasts.

Paper is here: https://t.co/33rshGC1rr

Thanks @ETSshow for letting me know.

@ben_golub I think human-generated content will eventually become “artisanal.”

[Visar Berisha @visarASU]

@sayashk @random_walker @RishiBommasani I agree C2PA is a step forward but not foolproof—you can still capture AI content on C2PA devices.

We need deeper provenance, like verifying at the time of recording that recorded speech is coming from a live human moving their lips (similar for images), to ensure authenticity.

@julieliss and I have been working together for over a decade on clinical speech analytics. This perspectives paper highlights the insights we’ve gained along the way.

How do we responsibly build clinical speech AI models that translate?

By bridging the gap between speech science & clinical research... A new article by @visarASU & @julieliss shows how this reduces training data size and improves model interpretability.

One key takeaway from this post is how the hype cycle fuels publication bias in ML science, leading to overoptimistic results. Our new paper provides a solution to estimate realistic model performance across various fields: https://t.co/XwKaNwEB4S

Amy Coney Barrett shocked during oral arguments that Idaho law would keep a doctor from performing an abortion unless the mother was immediately dying right at the exact moment she’s at the hospital.

Didn’t she vote to allow this to happen in the first place? 😒

Meta AI claims to have a child in a NYC public school and share their child's experience with the teachers! The reply is in response to a question looking for personal feedback in a private Facebook group for parents. Also, Meta's algorithm ranks it as the top comment! @AIatMeta

The crappiness of the Humane AI Pin reported here is a great example of the underappreciated capability-reliability distinction in gen AI. If AI could *reliably* do all the things it's *capable* of, it would truly be a sweeping economic transformation.

Great article. AlphaFold can expedite but not short-circuit the scientific method.

[Suresh Venkatasubramanian (mostly in the sky now) @geomblog]

This article looks at how good the predictions of AlphaFold actually are. The tldr is in the title: "AlphaFold predictions are valuable hypotheses and accelerate but do not replace experimental structure determination"
