"It is not yet a crisis, but it could be heading there." Ian Wilson discusses metabolite misidentification, data validation, and why AI could amplify errors if the metabolomics community doesn't act. Read more: https://ow.ly/al1A50Z7uZu #Metabolomics #MassSpec

I getting a pre-submission peer review on a manuscript is a great use for AI. You don't need a third-party tool. GPT-5.x and Opus 4.x are good, and open/community development of these skills/harnesses is the way. I wrote a Claude skill wrapping the Consensus MCP to do this. doi.org/10.59350/b35...

🖥️ In response to the growing number of reports about the use of generative AI chatbots by learners at workshops, The Carpentries has launched a bonus module in which instructors will explore what widespread genAI use means for the way they teach.
