🇩🇪 FutuRSI: Ein Jahr auf dem Weg zu einer nationalen Research Software Institution🚀
Am letzten Tag der deRSE26 in Stuttgart spricht Dr. Florian Mannseicher (de-RSE e.V.) über Stand und Potenzial von RSE in Deutschland. Einblicke in ein Jahr Projektentwicklung – und wie ihr die Zukunft von RSE mitgestalten könnt.

for instance, regarding the gradually forming AI usage practices/habits, and seeing this piece in the news, I think we could only benefit from touching base with unions of various kinds. See if we have something to offer that they are interested in (teaching, models, ways of criticizing AI), what direction they would like us to go into, what they would like us to investigate and reasearch, and what to argue for or substantiate with scholarly findings and experiences.

And in the end, it is also us - at least with our RSE hats on, but maybe it even holds for the organisation of academic research as a whole - and our working conditions, tasks and pressures, who are talked about and disposed of in these developments who may be urged to become "reverse centaurs"...
Took a while to find the phrase that @[email protected] used recently that I really liked that summed up this situation. Reverse-centaur This article screams that Burger King would really just prefer to get rid of the squishy human part of their system. The next best thing... make that squishy human subservient to some lines of code that effectively tells them to "smile more". Burger King AI bot will check up on staffs' please and thank yous - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgk2zygg0k3o

Just attended my first #deRSE conference - what an experience! Good software is the foundation of modern research and Open Science. The role of Research Software Engineers (RSEs) is more crucial than ever. So let’s support and strengthen this community!
