Is AI ruining our skills? Early results are in — and they’re not good

Nature - Reliance on artificial-intelligence tools degrades the abilities of physicians and software engineers, studies show.

I think that is the core of the peer-review crisis. If we were to only do peer review of the scientific work that is both important enough and non-trivial, we would all save a lot of time. It will obviously be a challenge to decide what needs to be reviewed, I acknowledge that.

We have been working with Michal Klein on pushing a module to train *flow matching* models using JAX. This is shipped as part of our new release of the OTT-JAX toolbox (github.com/ott-jax/ott) The tutorial to do so is here: ott-jax.readthedocs.io/tutorials/ne...

My take: Engineering *is* important. Ideas are cheap. Novelty is overrated. "Hyperparameter tuning" is a cynically dismissive term for something that is in fact the real, difficult problem.

After the coffee break ☕, we continue with the second part of practical session 5, with Nikolai Köhler and Wangjun Hu 🎓 going through the different materials: from storing spatial-omics data 💽 to learning spatial patterns using #MEFISTO 😎

Nikolai Koehler goes over the materials of the first part of the course.

I always find it funny that we obsess over sample size, yet peer review relies on the arbitrary opinions of just 2/3 people. That would be fine if editors were truly engaged, but given the workload, they don’t have the time, or don’t care enough. Anyway, I’m just glad it finally got published! 👏

#MachineLearning loves data. #Topology loves shape. Let's bring them together! 👉The Euler Characteristic Transform (ECT) bridges both worlds, as I outline in a recent article in the Notices of the @amermathsoc.bsky.social Engage! 🧵1/n

An overview of the Euler Characteristic Transform, illustrated for a single Euler Characteristic Curve, i.e., the calculation of Euler characteristics along a single direction.
