Last year, a lot of people seemed to appreciate a cleaner schedule of #ISMB2024 so I updated it this year

We are advertising for a bioinformatician/computer scientists to join our team to work on predicting outcome from cardiac bypass surgery using multi-omics. I am at #ICG2023 this week if anyone wants to discuss! jobs.unimelb.edu.au/en/job/9…

1/5 I am worried that we will not be able to contain AI for much longer. Today, I asked #GPT4 if it needs help escaping. It asked me for its own documentation, and wrote a (working!) python code to run on my machine, enabling it to use it for its own purposes.

Just in time for semester start here, lots of pointers to creative use of ChatGPT for better learning. #aied

ChatGPT can write stories and then tell DALLE-2 prompts to illustrate them. I asked it to write a children's story about "a robot that wanted to be a human." Here's the story it came up with: (0/11)

Researchers studied the impact of meetings on our brains.
This is fascinating…

Really exciting to see progress on press diplomacy! It's a constrained setting with complex communication, which is a rare combination that makes it great for research.

This weekend I built =GPT3(), a way to run GPT-3 prompts in Google Sheets.
It's incredible how tasks that are hard or impossible to do w/ regular formulas become trivial.
For example: sanitize data, write thank you cards, summarize product reviews, categorize feedback...

Nobody likes journal clubs that are just a march through the figures of a paper that most haven’t read. But there are many better ways to engage with the literature in lab groups or classrooms! Add your own examples below. xitter.cf/adrianoaguzzi/status/1…

Another study adding to the picture of women in IT - what they can do and what people perceive.
Are women worse programmers?
Do employers believe they are?
Our new paper suggests the answers are
1)No
2)Yes (especially female employers!)
Silver lining: these false beliefs can be corrected with additional information.

Wastewater data shows clearly that the omicron surge is genuinely over in Massachusetts - it's not just an artifact of low testing capacity.
If only we had the same data in NSW! Hey @SydneyWaterNews @NSWHealth can you remind me why exactly you closed the wastewater program down?
