Back from #ic2s2 which was again a fantastic conference experience - congrats to the organizers! Some professors got a poster this time, which was actually super fun to design and present - haven't done it since my 1st year of PhD 16 years ago 👴
Nice they are now also building a similar population scale persons network as in the Netherlands in Sweden. Curious what the network will look like when it is complete. Their project site: https://netreg.se/

On the night train back to Germany and then the Netherlands from the #ic2s2 in Norrköpping. I really enjoyed the conference. Lots of new ideas for research, learned new things. They had some nice keynotes. Especially the one on design-based supervised learning by Brandon Steward and the one by Duncan Watts on integrative modelling.
Nice, clear division of research into Explanation vs. Prediction by Duncan Watts at #ic2s2
Seeing talk titles at #ic2s2 I can't be the only one, when reading LLM or AI, having to react with "oh, yet another one 🙄"? No disrespect to colleague's work, but the topic feels overhyped.. Not *everything* needs an LLM angle. #grinchmoment
NERDS at #ic2s2 😍

My collaborator @bokanyie just gave a fantastic talk at #ic2s2 about our "urban highways" paper https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2408937122
