LLM-assisted systematic review of large language models in clinical medicine - Nature Medicine

A large language model (LLM)-powered systematic review of over 1,000 studies revealed that, despite the growth of medical research involving LLMs, a majority of studies do not involve real-world clinical data.

#webRios 1.1 is live! The big additions: code completion, customizable keyboard shortcuts, and a Data Import Wizard. Plus a better iPad four-pane layout (still a work in progress, more coming).

#RStats on your iPhone and iPad keeps getting better. Best experience on #iOS 26.

Lors d’un repas entre amis, j’ai posé la question de la référence à 67.

https://xkcd.com/3184/

Nos ados ont confirmé utiliser l’expression sans en connaïtre la signification. Mon pote à fond dans l’IA (on en a tous un) a alors demandé à ChatGPT qui lui a répondu que c’était une référence au département du Bas-Rhin issue de la scène rap de cette région.

Je crois que je vais longtemps lui ressortir l’influence mondiale de la scène rap du Bas-Rhin…

Introducing bluffbench, a new tool to evaluate how well LLMs actually see data plots.

When we trick LLMs with secret #RStats transformations, they can miss the visual contradiction.

bluffbench helps us measure this "blind spot" in AI coding agents. Learn more: https://posit.co/blog/introducing-bluffbench/

When plotting, LLMs see what they expect to see - Posit

Data science agents need to accurately read plots even when the content contradicts their expectations. Our testing shows today's LLMs still struggle here.

Whenever I read 'battery of questionnaires', I think of ...

We got our first review stating that as p-curve was recently criticized, and z-curve was also not 'vetted by a real statistician', the method should not be trusted.

No statistical tool could ever damage science as much as this horrendously flawed authority argument.
