A study in Nature Medicine exposed LLMs to simulated clinical cases with switched sociodemographic features exploring ethnic, social, sexual orientation and gender dimensions and showed differences in recommendations for patient treatment, referral and follow-up based only on these features. 🔒

Reading science news headlines can be so frustrating. Wondering if it might be a helpful assessment for undergraduate students to write an article about a paper. Probably skill isn't the issue though, I guess it's incentive. #AcademicSky #Neuroskyence

There's a movement in neuroscience suggesting we should be pursuing bigger bets with larger teams. I think there's a case for doing a bit of this, but I think it's a bad idea to prioritise it for two reasons, and a good case for saying we should be moving in the exact opposite direction. 🧠🧪
