I hate doing personal posts but: When my mum was dying last year, NHS data sharing failures and prioritising GDPR over pain relief repeatedly left her in agony. In desperation I began to build a Google Doc of her records linked to a QR code for doctors to scan. System's broken.

📰 New Turing survey finds over half of UK doctors using AI are optimistic about its benefits. And that, while a quarter have used some form of AI over the last 12 months, around a third felt they didn't fully AI risk in healthcare: bit.ly/3BSrByX #AiNews #MedTech

📈Out today in PNASNews!📈 In a large pre-registered experiment (n=25,982), we find evidence that scaling the size of LLMs yields sharply diminishing persuasive returns for static political messages.  🧵:

Hello friends! Wanted to share my reflections on exciting new insights during #ICLR2025. A summary (and links) 🧵 TL,DR: 1. We are on the cusp of long-horizon capabilities paving the way for open-ended automated research, AI personalization, etc. 2. Many necessary pieces are
