How important is corrrect taxonomy!
Species identification varied from 63% to 100% accuracy across different methods, meaning that some laboratories failed to detect a third of the bacterial species present in the sample

Yes, having a spirit of reconciliation is a way forward. There is hope to mitigate the aggressiveness of those who have not wanted to understand!
Thanks MIRRI @pravrahi.bsky.social & thanks @seqcode.bsky.social for the against-stream efforts! 💪🏽

"MIRRI-ERIC fully supports the importance of maintaining physical type strains as NTs, while also recommending genome sequence data that meet SeqCode's quality standards as additional NTs." 👏

I believe AI tools have their advantages, but DeepSeek highlights significant limitations, particularly in how AI tools can be used to spread propaganda. We must recognize that human intelligence and rational thinking are still crucial and cannot be replaced by AI. #DeepSeekAI
