Too many people saying that "math is essential for interpreting data", too few people willing to say that one number is smaller than another

Please consider who benefits from you becoming complacent, doing less critical thinking, less fact checking. Who benefits from devaluing yours and other people‘s labor. From your data.
TL;DR: AI is so much dumber than you think, aka it is not actually „intelligent“ at all, it can‘t remotely do what most people seem to think it already can, it‘s just good at faking human „thinking“. There is no ghost in the machine. Please stop falling for the grift.
🚨Our paper `Reclaiming AI as a theoretical tool for cognitive science' is now forthcoming in the journal Computational Brain & Behaviour. (Preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...)

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless

Today I saw someone with a Margaret Thatcher tattoo which, after further inspection, turned out to seemingly be his grandma instead

I had to tell my mom that she shouldn't put passive aggressive messages about family drama as her whatsapp status. There was no internet when she was 14, so I can't fully blame her
