Loves working with data 👩🏼💻 #socialscientist turned #datascientist; thinking a lot about bias, building sustainable ML products and diversity in tech Working on @rladies-bot.bsky.social and @pyladies-bot.bsky.social https://linktr.ee/cosima_meyer
If you know overviewR, you may have also heard of overviewpy. If not, let me introduce you to it :) When working on overviewR, it opened me so many (learning) doors. Understanding the language a bit better, trying things out and building a tool that could be helpful for the community. #rladies
After a bit of tinkering, my "gallery" got a small facelift. I'm so happy how it turned out! I also wrote a (very) short reflection on the process and how I got there. Why very short? Because it didn't take too long and was surprisingly straightforward! cosimameyer.com/post/updatin...
It's been a while since we last updated {overviewR} but it's officially updated on CRAN! 🚀 If you want to learn what's new, here's a short summary: cosimameyer.com/post/newest-... In a nutshell: - Export tables as markdown - Proportional Venn diagrams - More flexible plot colors #rladies
I'm back to working on the @pyladies-bot.bsky.social and @rladies-bot.bsky.social bots 🥰 Do you have a blog or a YouTube channel and want it featured? Let me know or learn more about it here: cosimameyer.github.io/community-bo... #pyladies #rladies

Artificial intelligence is shaping our world, but how do we ensure it aligns with human and moral values? Here’s a short review of “Moral AI” which addresses these and other questions: cosimameyer.com/post/moral-a... #MoralAI #AIethics #Ethics #ResponsibleAI

When I started creating portraits of women in tech last year, I had no idea how quickly it would grow into the "Amazing Women in Tech" series ✨ I set up a gallery where you can flip through the portraits: 🌟 Amazing Women in Tech Gallery: gallery.cosimameyer.com #womenintech #amazingwomenintech
It is with a full heart that I step down from my role with @rladies-cologne.bsky.social a chapter of @rladies.org that I had the pleasure of founding in 2021 💜
I played around with some functionalities of the @rladies-bot.bsky.social and @pyladies-bot.bsky.social to improve the blog post promotion. Using Gemini, I had a setup up and running in ~30 minutes. If you want to try it out yourself, here's my step-by-step guide: bit.ly/embed-gemini #python
I may be biased, but if you're looking for an opportunity to get involved in the #rladies community (and live in or near one of the best cities in the world), this is for you! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out or contact the chapter directly 😊 @rladies.org @rladies-bot.bsky.social

Because it never gets old... integrated gradients are a great (and accessible) way to start making your LLMs explainable 📖 Here's a blog post that I co-authored with @ankuepfer.bsky.social on this topic: bit.ly/bert-xai-post #pyladies #python #xai
For those interested in ethical implications of AI, as well as work on Responsible and Trustworthy AI - here is a starter pack (non-exhaustive) to help find out more or connect with colleagues go.bsky.app/RnucJWZ
To all the #pyladies and #rladies out there - if you have a blog or a YouTube channel and want to be added, feel free to reach out! Your content will then be featured by the @pyladies-bot.bsky.social or @rladies-bot.bsky.social 🙌
Cosima@cosima.bsky.social · 3y agoThe Awesome PyLadies' Blogs Repository is growing 🤩 I spent some evenings during the past weeks finding and reaching out to people (also for the Awesome R-Ladies' Blogs repository). It's so cool to see all the different blogs and feeds! 😍 (screenshot shows README of the repository)
I would love love love to connect to more Research Software Engineers! This is quite #rstats heavy currently, but is open to all of any level! go.bsky.app/4kfWypW
PySky, what is your favorite automated documentation tool? Investigating to round out the docs of an internal platform I'm working on, and want something a bit more detailed than just a docstring-generated list of methods and inputs. One thing I'd like is class diagrams of derived classes #python
I'm so happy to see so many familiar and also new friendly faces here, so I thought it was time for a quick #introduction 👋 I have a PhD in #polisci and work as a #datascientist in the industry, where I've seen both the product and the consulting perspective.
If anyone has a reason to hype up language interfaces and LLMs, it’s @inesmontani.bsky.social—founder of Explosion, the company behind the Python NLP tools spaCy and Prodigy. But her take? Sometimes, a simple form does the job better. Let’s build more alarm clocks and less automated window knockers!
