The hallucinations should be disqualifying on their own. But the staggering exploitation of water, energy, and creative labor is something I am begging my friends in academia to foreground in their conversations about AI. Let’s get specific about what we are doing, why, and at what cost.

Just wrapped our 1st joint interview for a podcast about science & research communication. At end, I said, "You don't have to know everything & you don't have to figure it all out by yourself. Sensemaking is how we get there together" It surprised me to realize how much *I* needed to hear that!

Really grateful to Jenny for writing this great piece about the Spoonbill Club - our little venture to run birding trips for Bay Area folks with long COVID and other energy-limiting chronic illnesses. (And I hope someone fulfils Molly Adams's wish of starting a NY chapter.)

After learning how to work openly in Notion & GitHub, it's so much harder to collaborate with groups that aren't. We can do so much better than project-management-by-email.

Downside: frustrating
Upside: new recruits! (I will never stop being grateful to @xkcd.com for imgs.xkcd.com/comics/ten_t...)

I've been turned into a cartoon :) Karen Romano Young interviews scientists and then turns their interviews into cartoons and quick facts for K-12 teachers to use in their classrooms. Highly recommend looking at the other scientists who are highlighted!

#IndigenousPeoplesDay is Monday. My challenge to non-Natives: dig into the history of the people who were displaced from your land, learn about the history of how they were displaced, find out where they are now, and support them financially or by protesting with them. Go beyond platitudes.

Your talk was so inspiring Kara! Thank you and congratulations! This quote really resonated: "If you can't make changes because you're afraid of breaking something, it's already broken"
