It pains me to see facile critiques of GWAS on here from our clinical/biostats friends while the many actually good reasons to be critical of GWAS get little attention. So here's a thread on what GWAS does, what critics get wrong, and where GWAS is genuinely still lacking. 🧵:
You can try out the mysterious gpt2-chatbot at chat.lmsys.org (select "Direct Chat" and pick it from the menu) Initial impressions: I'm very impressed. It gave me a better answer for an ego search ("Who is Simon Willison?") than any other model I've tried
There is a mysterious new model called gpt2-chatbot accessible from a major LLM benchmarking site. No one knows who made it or what it is, but I have been playing with it a little and it appears to be in the same rough ability level as GPT-4. A mysterious GPT-4 class model? Neat!
Massively excited to have been selected among the few presenters at the online BSA ‘Teaching Sociology in Higher Education: Pedagogical Practices & Possibilities’ event, to talk about the sociology of GenAI and education, on 8 May - come join us if free! tinyurl.com/2ekbt59y

So many a-ha moments, including 1) What it looks like when a community fights a data center and how those tactics can inform a Luddite praxis in education. 2) AI literacy frameworks should examine "algorithms and code but also minerals such as lithium and elements such as water."
Good morning! My article on AI value chain, water and resistance is out in journal format (I shared a pre-print before) 🤖🫧✊ I propose an ethical framework based on the voices of communities resisting AI-fuelled environmental harm in Chile rdcu.be/dFVmm
Okay, fuck this and fuck you. Most of what we have regarding Aristotle, Socrates, Plato and other ancient philosophers are translations of translations which are STILL fought about in the discipline to this day. Moreover, each translation introduces cultural bias into the text.
Soon, students will have CONVERSATIONS with Aristotle, Socrates, or Plato rather than just reading about them. This is how AI is REVOLUTIONIZING education.
2/2 That behaviorist tradition goes back to Edward Thorndike, who thought all decisions about teaching should be made by experts & told his grad students to read about schls rather than visit them so as to maintain the "emotionally indifferent attitude of the scientific observer"
1/2 Important to understand that deskilling teachers is at the heart of Direct Instruction. Its pioneer, uber-behaviorist Sig Engelmann, said, "The teacher must be viewed as a consumer of instruction material." Also: "We don't give a damn about what the teacher thinks [or] feels"
