Over the past few months i recorded a bunch of weirdo guitar music and decided to release some of it as a 6 song EP. Not to everyone's (anyone's?) taste i imagine but was really fun to make. Anyway, here it is:

Among those questions include the role discredited ethnic fraudster Carrie Bourassa, who helped get this "study" through the research ethics process using claims of "Indigenous" research methodologies, none of which were legitimate.

I was asked to comment on this after reading the research ethics application a few months ago and the negligence involved is staggering. There are still many, many unanswered questions.

This is a very good deep dive into bizarre and disturbing medical experiment on Indigenous kids — from 2014. The University of Regina's Research Ethics Board has a lot to answer for. https://www.cbc.ca/newsinteractives/features/brain-school-study-indigenous-biocybernaut-james-hardt
A U.S. scientist experimented on Indigenous kids to cure them of trauma. One critic calls it 'bonkers'

About a decade ago, a U.S. brainwave scientist got permission to experiment on Canadian Indigenous children in an attempt to cure them of their traumas. The project was supported by the Saskatchewan Rivers Public School Division after the study received ethics approval from the University of Regina.

For those of you who use LLMs to help you code, here's a warning: these tools have been shown to hallucinate packages in a way that allows an attacker to poison your application. https://www.theregister.com/2024/03/28/ai_bots_hallucinate_software_packages/ #ai #gpt #chatgpt #security
AI hallucinates software packages and devs download them – even if potentially poisoned with malware

Simply look out for libraries imagined by ML and make them real, with actual malicious code. No wait, don't do that

Imagine if clinical trials measured benefits only, but no side effects or risks.

That’s how most AI & Robotics research works, even though it could easily be designed so much better & more scientifically.

The conduct that’s considered acceptable in these fields is scary. 😱
