One of the impressive things about Dr. Abdul M. El-Sayed, MD is that he is an author of over 100 scholarly articles, abstracts, and book chapters, including this one: SYSTEMS SCIENCE AND POPULATION HEALTH
Dr. Adbul El-Sayed is an MD, and has a degree from Oxford, and is a Rhodes Scholar.
Fucking hell as if receiving automated rejection letters for jobs wasn't bad enough.

NEW BLOG FOR YOU Google's energy consumption numbers in their new climate report are mind-blowing. 2 years ago they flipped from linear to exponential growth, and their climate impact is blowing out, too. A WILD testament to the obscene bloat and waste of GenAI: ketanjoshi.co/2026/07/01/g...

Ford has rehired hundreds of senior engineers after replacing them with AI backfired and has cost the company billions of dollars. AI adoption is blamed for Ford being the most recalled automaker in the U.S. with 51 recalls covering over 11 million vehicles in the first half of 2026 alone.

A computer worm, an online rumor and a zombie apocalypse are not the same thing. Despite that, they can share a similar mathematical skeleton: contact changes state and state changes propagate. Last essay for #ComplexityThoughts: manlius.substack.com/p/the-power-...
There’s a world I sometimes fantasize about where the breakthroughs in artificial neural networks are still inside research labs and leading to interesting scientific projects. This essay from @juangallego.bsky.social is like a bulletin from that alternative reality.
Why neural foundation models work, and what they might—and might not—teach us about the brain
These models can partly generalize across species, brain regions and tasks, suggesting that a set of machine-learnable rules govern neural population activity. But will we be able to understand them?
