What does a doctor look like? Asking AI
Sati Heer-Stavert considers whether AI generated images of doctors reflect the diversity of the medical workforce
Inaccurate portrayals of doctors in the media and everyday imagery can perpetuate ste...
Interesting article. You too can ask your favourite chatbot (they used ChatGPT, I tried Copilot) for a photorealistic image of a doctor specifically NHS vs UK vs US and say the specialty. Sit back and watch the gender and ethnicity biases of current AI come spewing out.

If Network NEWSCASTS, and their Late Night Shows, are almost 100% Accurate about a Pathological Liar and Convicted Felon who Incited an Insurrection, tried to Steal a Fair Election and is Covering up Sex Crimes against Children, shouldn't his Disgraceful Presidency be terminated? I say, YES!

Itโs also why quacks and antivaxxers so frequently create their own bogus IRBs, following the unethical trail blazed by Stanislaw Burzynski and Mark & David Geier.

An article from The Independent under the section "News > World > Americas > US politics" with the headline: "Fund managers quietly fear Trump doesnโt have a tariff plan and that he โmight be insaneโ." The subheading reads: "Some fund managers concerned โthat the White House is not acting rationally, but rather on ideology. And some even fear that this may not even be ideologyโ." The article is authored by Gustaf Kilander in Washington D.C., published on Thursday, 10 April 2025 at 16:31 BST.
Welcome to our everyday hell, fund managers.

What you don't know, CAN hurt you!
AKA how incomplete data can ruin otherwise great research.
One of the biggest, most common problems in research is missing or incomplete data -- EVEN in RCTs!
Learning to spot problematic incomplete data is a critical skill for anyone wanting to read or do research.
What is incomplete data? What red flags should you look for? And what about green flags? ๐

EU response to Trump tariffs could amount to โฌ400bn
The total European Union response to US President Donald Trump's tariffs could amount to duties on US goods worth โฌ400 billion, RTร News understands.
๐จ๐จ EU is preparing a proper assault to #Trumptariffs which could amount to โฌ400bn as retaliation to US tariffs on 25% on steel and aluminium, last Wednesday's "reciprocal" tariffs of 20% on most EU exports, and the 25% tariffs on European car and autoparts exports. ๐งต

It is maddening how stingy and bureaucratic societies and academic institutions are.
Many expect me to work for free, only offer economy flight tickets, and have me fill out forms for hours.
It is almost as if they do not value science integrity.

Very inappropriate reaction from an EU country's head of state. This is trying to pretend the process was politically motivated and the justice system in France is biased. It is the typical thinking of what extreme right populists would do themselves. But Orbรกn is very wrong.
