I'm working on a tutorial, "How to Add Conversation Memory to Your Chatbot". It shows how to use dynamic prompt engineering with history to give your chatbot memory of a conversation topic. Article to follow soon. github.com/primaryobjec... #LLM #chatbot #AI #conversation #python

2023 was unexpectedly hot, and many climate scientists are working to understand why.
In my latest article at NASA's Earth Observatory, I spoke to @climateofgavin.bsky.social and @hausfath.bsky.social about recent warmth and possible contributors. earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/15358...

I'm still adding to this but thought I'd share my starter pack for primatology!

I made a starter pack for animal behaviour researchers / ethologists! please share and feel free to self-nominate or suggest others to be added as this is very much still a work in progress and not an exhaustive list 🌍🧪😊 #SciSky #BioSky #AnimalBehaviour #AnimalBehavior #Ethology
