Curious on the #ecological conditions associated with the recent emergence of #Oropouche in #Brazil ? We explore this in a new #preprint currently under review [1]. Huge team effort, with support of the CLIMADE consortium [2].

Image shows maps of Brazil, colored according to the level of several variables of interest, including forest cover, human density and temperature among others. Below each map, graphics present association of each variable with the observed spread of Oropouche virus. Certain variables like forest cover, human density and temperature show clear relationships.

Ainda sobre AI e impactos na ciência: este site aqui é de deixar a gente de queixo caído. Eles buscam artigos gerados por AI em revistas. Tem cada coisa. Inclusive em revistas indexadas. www.academ-ai.info

Nas áreas mais matematizadas criar artigos com o chat GPT é bem mais difícil. Porém acontecem casos estranhos. Sou do corpo editorial de uma revista e tive grande trabalho com um artigo. Partes grandes dos textos eram escritas com IA, mas misturadas com equações e gráficos que tinham algum sentido.

Isto aqui é bem preocupante. Robozinhos de Lattes estão usando gerador de lero-lero pra produzir artigos acadêmicos e isso introduz desinformação sobre saúde e meio-ambiente, entre outros temas.

Sigam o @carlbergstrom.com , professor que criou uma disciplina ensinando a detectar quem fala merda.

We're so fucked.

"Our analysis of a selection of questionable GPT-fabricated scientific papers found in Google Scholar shows that many are about applied, often controversial topics susceptible to disinformation: the environment, health, and computing."
