How to Read a Paper Involving AI.

bmjmedicine.bmj.com/content/4/1/...

Super useful reference including key AI definitions and an approach on how to read a paper including AI in its research. Reminder that “AI… is not a panacea, and it raises both practical and ethical challenges”.

Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

In a new editorial from Editor-in-Chief of PAIN @karenddavis.bsky.social reaffirms the journal’s commitment to considering #diversity, #DEI, and #GenderIdentity in pain research and management. bit.ly/3D5WgJO 

Let's be honest. In challenging consultations, some quite negative thoughts can pass through the doctor's mind.

So why don't we teach how to process these thoughts productively?

In this week's @bmj.com I describe a new approach to role play. Just out.

A recipe for pain-free(?) academic writing

I’m a big fan of “top-down iterative writing”, for all kinds of academic texts. This is my take on why it helps, and one way to do it, in a series of (individually pain-minimised) steps from blank screen to submission

I discussed the climate change-fueled Southern California wildfires and the disinformation that Trump & enablers are promoting about them last night with Stephanie Ruhle on #MSNBC #11thHour: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DCH...

Anyone have a good ref for "oh I see you've got some survey data with a bunch of different constructs please don't throw them all into a causal salad linear model and start interpreting the coefficients"

Asking for a reviewer (me)

@rmcelreath.bsky.social maybe?

One un-questioned research practice (UQRP) that does as much harm as QRPs is ignoring sampling bias and selection effects. This is a nice paper that shows one way to be transparent and analytical about the problem. "Graphical Causal Models for Survey Inference" doi.org/10.1177/0049... #stats 🧪

Such a delight to sit down with the great @a_greenberg for a long engaged convo on surveillance, AI, my wild path through tech, and how by rejecting the toxic norm Signal provides a shining model for better, healthier tech futures♥️
