@alastairdunning would there be moral panic about research from the first half of the 20th century if it was practised today?

Yes! And rightfully so! #srd23

Nas currently discussing #chatGPT and where this is going. I find this depressing. #srd23

Nas touches on the game changers in the field: "these are tech companies"

I don't agree. The benefit from mass access that is the game changer.

I think her current argument falls into the survivor bias trap. What do you think? #srd23

Nas talks about technology and research. She just mentions "frame of references". I hope the presentations gives some scientific evidence how to break those frames of reference #srd23

Good hypothetical question from Deborah Nas at #srd23

Would there be moral panic about books if they were invented after video games?

How can we use AI to identify biodiversity - the circa 8.7 million species on earth?

Jacob Kamminga at #srd23 explains how citizen science can give training data to improve AI species recognition algorithms.
