I wrote a short essay for The Conversation about the U.S. government’s ever more expansive collection of sensitive health care data domestically and abroad AND theconversation.com/us-governmen...

I am increasingly leaning away from calling "AI" generated stuff "slop" towards calling it "corrosion". Because that's what it does. To our information landscape. To the quality of artifacts around us. To our social connections. To our mental health. To our cognitive abilities.

What should be done when pharmacists’ and patients’ values collide? We’ve been struggling with this question for over 20 years and finding a resolution requires understanding professional rights and responsibilities. Check out my latest for @theconversation.com theconversation.com/conflict-at-...
