Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Pregnancy fog is such a bitch.

I have to read the same paragraph like 5x to process it and when it doesn't work then I have to walk around to see if blood flows to the brain again.

Except at this point I'm basically a penguin waddling around.

Reading a paper takes a whole f*ing day! \end{rant}

An economist reached out and asked where they might publish a review they'd written.

Here's my (certainly incomplete) list of 30+ journals where economists publish reviews. bit.ly/3QfaE6m

Joel Mokyr invited me to present my JMP at an econ workshop when I was still a grad student (the only grad student among presenters). I was terrified. Spotting me lost at dinner, he came over to discuss my work with genuine curiosity. That early encouragement meant a lot. Glad to see him honored.
