if you pay an artist to make art they’ll use that money to be able to keep making art, and stimulate the economy in the process! whereas if you get GenAI to make art it’ll use private equity money to drive up energy prices in the short term and in the long term cause the economy to collapse

'Our research has found that patchy implementation of family-friendly policies and unsympathetic managerial cultures push women to work as if nothing has changed. They are required to give birth to the “ideal academic baby”: a child who never disrupts grant deadlines, seminars or student emails.'

I strongly believe that focusing on information & computation during Development provides an important framework, that encapsulates the genetic, chemistry & mechanics, but focusses on organisation, dynamics & logic.

Public bodies should always be transparent and disclose if a generative AI tool is used in any public document, even if the output from such tools has been assessed by their staff. In such a disclosure, specific details about the tools should also be mentioned for transparency.

Here we go!!! Please do consider signing! Olivia @olivia.science and her peer peeps act as scholars owe to do, as we all owe to.
Please sign this excellent letter to Ursula vdL, so she can see that nonsense AI hype is neither true nor appropriate for anybody to believe or spread.
Scientists and scholars in AI and its social impacts call on von der Leyen to retract #AIHype statement.
