A group of researchers at Columbia University asked both human participants and their “digital” twins–large language models trained on each participant’s data–to complete the same set of tasks. This research explores how closely digital twins can mirror human judgement and decision-making.
One of the greatest glow-ups in modern politics by Sen Booker. Judge Brown is unsmiling because she’s trying so hard to keep from bursting into tears Cory is gifted. PS we met him twice in small campaign events, and he is magic in person too. And playing the long game.
Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com · last yr.Fam, remember three years ago when Cory Booker brought tears to all of our eyes when he lifted up Ketanji Brown Jackson? “You are worthy.” That’s who he is. That’s who he’s always been. @booker.senate.gov
US academia is unparalleled in the welfare it creates. But US academia is now under attack and other countries, like Germany, have to keep the flame alive for a while. It will make them more innovative. See our guest article in @spiegel.de, translated. 👇 www.hertie-school.org/en/news/allc...

Jonathan Cole essay is marvelous. Why is not Columbia emphasizing the destruction of knowledge that this has caused?

My favorite holidays on Metro North, the commuter train to NYC from Dutchess County are the only days when alcohol is not allowed SantaCon 🎅 and St. Patrick's day. 🍀 Some people must start early and go late

People need to understand that we are in an entirely new paradigm. It is now Russia the US against Ukraine and Europe. This is not a shift in US policy, it is a transformation of what kind of country the United States is in the world
