This matches my personal anecdotal evidence. I stopped using AI except for menial tasks and verbose stuff which is conceptually easy but has syntax that is hard to remember (eg matplotlib).
We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

New paper hot off the press www.nature.com/articles/s41...
We analysed over 40,000 computer vision papers from CVPR (the longest standing CV conf) & associated patents tracing pathways from research to application. We found that 90% of papers & 86% of downstream patents power surveillance

Computer-vision research powers surveillance technology - Nature
An analysis of research papers and citing patents indicates the extensive ties between computer-vision research and surveillance.

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute.
The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud.
This was the right and only appropriate response.

If you are at an event where someone on stage gives a Hitler salute and that person is not dragged off by security and kicked out, you are at a Nazi rally.

The people still trying to deny the bio pathology of Long Covid & ME/CFS by calling it psychosomatic or deconditioning are so embarrassing. They sound like climate deniers & flat earthers. Can’t wait for the day public consciousness catches up & good scientists don’t have to waste time refuting them
We refute that our findings are due to deconditioning, as Long COVID-related skeletal muscle differ fundamentally from those caused by deconditioning. We demonstrated significant physiological differences in Long COVID patients with post-exertional malaise (PEM) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The GigaMIDI Dataset with Features for Expressive Music Performance Detection | Transactions of the International Society for Music Information Retrieval
The Transactions of the International Society for Music Information Retrieval publishes novel scientific research in the field of music information retrieval (MIR), an interdisciplinary research area concerned with processing, analysing, organising and accessing music information. We welcome submissions from a wide range of disciplines, including computer science, musicology, cognitive science, library & information science and electrical engineering.TISMIR was established to complement the widely cited ISMIR conference proceedings and provide a vehicle for the dissemination of the highest quality and most substantial scientific research in MIR. TISMIR retains the Open Access model of the ISMIR Conference proceedings, providing rapid access, free of charge, to all journal content. In order to encourage reproducibility of the published research papers, we provide facilities for archiving the software and data used in the research. To avoid excessive cost to the authors or their institutions, TISMIR is published in electronic-only format.

This is such an inspirational insight from Jorge Luis Borges 🙇♂️ super relevant today in our quest for more and more and more data
This 150-word story by Jorge Luis Borges should be required reading for scientists. We don’t just want data to make a perfect scientific map - which at its logical conclusion is ridiculous. We want to learn the principles that explain the subject, though imperfectly.

The main impact of LLMs for programming will be tons of verbose and unnecessary docstrings that ever-so-slightly misdescribe what a function does.
