WOMEN IN PHYSICS DAY!
In honor of the pioneering women in physics who broke down barriers to do what they love, we celebrate Women in Physics Day on November 7th, the birthdate of both Marie Curie and Lise Meitner.
Marie Skrodowska-Curie (1867-1934)
Radioactivity pioneer, two-time Nobel laureate
A giant of science, Marie Sktodowska-Curie conducted pioneering research on radioactivity, a term she coined. She discovered two elements, founded two medical research centres, won two Nobels, and invented mobile X-ray units (dubbed petites Curies), saving countless lives in World War
Lise Meitner (1878-1968) Nuclear physicist
When Lise Meitner was a teen, Austria restricted female higher education. She pursued physics anyway, and 25 years later became the first woman in Germany to hold a professorship in physics. She helped discover nuclear fission, but was contentiously not awarded the 1944 Nobel alongside collaborator Otto Hahn.
NOVEMBER 7TH
Dear Physicists and Physics fans,
I would like to encourage you to celebrate #WomenInPhysics Day this Friday, November 7th.
Why November 7th? Because it is the birthday of two of the most impactful women physicists of the 1900's: Marie Curie and Lise Meitner. π’ βοΈ π§ͺ π©βπ¬

There is absolutely no good faith reason to use the term βAIβ for any technology one is selling.
It serves only for dazzling people into thinking the technology has capabilities that it doesnβt.
If one wants a technology to be trustworthy, just use a transparent, informative term without hype.
