The goal is clearly to marginalize the (previously) independent voices of NIH institute directors, and centralize all communication through the NIH Director's office. Required for Bhattacharya's pivot away from science and towards RFKJr style Lysenkoism.
Kayla Toves, who is Kanaka‘ Oiwi and Acoma Pueblo, needed a language credit to graduate from Cornell. She fought to have her Indigenous language of Ōlelo Hawaiʻi count and won!
If you ever suspect you’re talking to an #AI deepfake avatar bot, ask them to count from one to five on their fingers.

Psychoanalytic analysis of LLMs turns out to be interesting. Suggests the possibility of a neural network model of unconscious processing like repression.
It’s even worse than that, because the administration’s policies have radically contracted admissions to PhD programs.
Not only have they gotten rid of PhDs, they’ve bombed the pipeline of folks who might one day replace them. It’s scientific infrastructure terrorism.
If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.
