Good work from Stanford HAI showing that GPT 4 is not robust enough for use as a medical co-pilot for the following important reasons: 1) Non-deterministic: They found low similarity and high variability in responses to the same question. Jaccard and cosine similarity

Our domain expertise is our capital. Increasingly we are being asked to give it away. Healthy industry academia (and federal!) collaboration is critical to our continued strength in innovation. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

I agree with Heather Gerken! It seems that this mode of collaboration could have deep impacts in how we think about a range of AI assisted logical tasks. Looking forward to building this partnership with Yale Law School!

On the .xz backdoor. It is hard to see how the developer Jia Tan is innocent. The backdoor was added in 5.6.0 by his account. He contacted Fedora to push them to move to 5.6.0. There was a problem with valgrind, they worked with hi to resolve it. He commits the fix in 5.6.1.

This will likely get spun in various ways, but it's a great example both of the power and the potential vulnerabilities in open source - someone being annoyed by a 500ms delay in ssh login times results in a massive exploit being revealed and fixed.

As we consider plans for the new Engineering campus, we are thinking about "novel" building materials. With new structural improvements, mass timber provides a compelling option. commonedge.org/is-mass-timber…

Our new mace was designed and created by Jacob Eldred, Yale MechE ‘24, over two painstaking years. It is a distillation of engineering concepts through history. We are grateful to him for spending so much time and care!

I used to make this joke with my old friend McCoy Tyner... I'd say not to go past the S on "Steinway." Thank you again to Bass Magazine for this week's #SundayFunday ;)
