"Self-reinforcing cascades: A spreading model for beliefs or products of varying intensity or quality" New preprint from the team arxiv.org/abs/2411.00714
What if robots that clean rivers could be designed in moments, not years? AI2050 Fellow @Kriegmerica is advancing fully-biological, AI-designed “xenobots” that could one day do complex real-world tasks, imagined instantly. Read our Q&A: ai2050.schmidtsciences.org/fellow/sam-kri…
New job posting: Please apply and/or share with your networks! I'm on the committee and happy to answer questions. Associate Professor of Quantitative Social Science, Dartmouth apply.interfolio.com/157039 (11/15 deadline)
