HTI-5 does a lot of things, but one of them is repealing the requirement that EHR developers submit "model cards" for AI model transparency. Read more in @STAT from Casey Ross.
My big question: Will the health AI community, which enthusiastically supported the (as yet unreleased) CHAI model card registry, continue to contribute cards and update the information when they're not regulatorily required to?

The Human Imitation Engine, or #HIE, by misnomer called "AI", "Artificial Intelligence", is, among its other failures, a tool for cheaters to cheat more efficiently, also in science. It ought to be forbidden for use in schools and at Universities.

Great scoop from Anna Wilde Mathews at the WSJ.
But it looks like this program, which RFK and Dr. Oz plan to have a press conference about on Monday, is largely stuff insurers had to do anyway to comply with the Biden admin's CMS-0057 if they administered govt-funded plans, making this indeed a great PR stunt for health insurance companies.

The absurd fascination with imitating some features of human beings and thinking that this will mean progress, in what we can call Human Imitation Engine, or #hie, also called, as a misnomer, "Artificial Intelligence", goes hand in hand with being un-fascinated about caring for the planet.

Name of new pope associated with his perception that "AI" is wrong
.. Leo XIII [..] is the Pope who faced the challenge of the impact of the Industrial Revolution [..] Pope Leo XIV said he had chosen this name because the world is facing another dramatic challenge. He pointed to the development of artificial intelligence and its impact on the dignity of the person, our creativity and our fundamental freedom...

Many who have studied the human interaction and personal awareness--including scientists and novelists such as sci-fi writer Ted Chiang, regard 'humanness' of 'AI' as deceptive. A solution: Replace "AI" with "HIE", where HIE stands for Human Imitation Engine. When, after pushing on such a better vocabulary through whatever cultural and linguistic insitutions there are, for some years, the tech companies will be forced to be de-hyping their misleading product-names.

When prof emeritus in mathematics at Oxford Univ, UK, Nobel Laureate Roger Penrose, says that "AI is a misnomer" and "intelligence is not what computers do", he does it from an investigation into noncomputability and the physics of the brain. This discussion has gone on for as long as there has been computers, and it has not been concluded. The proper name of "AI" is, in my proposal, "HIE", or Human Imitation Engine. #hie #hieresearch

I think the field of so-called "AI Research", containing, of course, the abbreviation "AI" for "Artificial Intelligence", which, according to Nobel Laureate Roger Penrose and others, is a misnomer, should rather be called "HIE Research": "HIE"="Human Imitation Engine". Penrose, in a YouTube interview, is an expert in noncomputability and Emeritus Professor of Mathematics at Oxford, UK, and his research led him to say: "Intelligence is not what computers do."

[09:27] HIE incidents at Portiuncula higher than expected - HSE
A Regional Executive Officer with the HSE has said that the rate of referrals for hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) at Portiuncula University Hospital in Galway last year was higher than would have been expected.

Last night I collected the last piece of data for my #HIE #Feeding PhD 🥳 I have data from the National Neonatal Research Database for 14,082 babies, questionnaire data on feeding history and symptoms from 58 families, and have done 15 interviews with 19 parents. A huge thank you to the Peeps HIE community - I've been absolutely blown away by the experiences and generosity of these families ❤️
Analysis and write up is underway, keep an eye out for updates and findings! -

I'm in the process of transcribing parent interviews for my #HIE #PhD mixed methods study. An emerging theme is that pathways and support often fall down for babies who are not expected to survive but then do, so this is a nicely timed publication. Parallel planning needed.

There may be other considerations I've not thought of too.
Any thoughts on this #HIE and #nicu #nicuverse communities?
Will be taking the question to my study PPI group as well.(4/4, done!)

If term-born baby with #HIE event is having expressed mother's milk and fortifier is added, would you categorise as 'mothers's milk only' or 'mother's milk + HM substitute/formula'?
Medically, we may say 'Oh, fortifier is just like taking a vitamin, it still counts as exclusive mother's milk'. Alternatively, mother may not see it the same way, and fortifier may reduce confidence in own milk and impact longer-term breastfeeding/lactation outcomes.
(3/n, nearly there...) -
Research conundrum re: #HIE #breastfeeding and #lactation outcomes. If categorising #NICU milk type into:
- mother's milk
- human milk (e.g. mum's + donor)
- human milk substitute/formula
- various combinations,
where would you place fortifier?
(1/n, more info to follow) -
Haven't posted (anywhere) for ages, and apparently last time I posted I was complaining about the difficulties of a particular knitting project. By coincidence, I'm NOT WORKING AT ALL this weekend and plan to do some knitting - considering myself warned to avoid that particular project.
In more interesting news, my #PhD data collection is almost complete 😮 #HIE #Feeding #Data will be with you soon(ish)! -
tl;dr: Next Hypergrid International Expo will be on Saturday, April 20th, and Sunday, April 21st. Same location, but new booths.
Yes, that's only a bit more than half a year after last time. But last time was about six years after the time before that.

CW: OpenSim-related Follow Friday post; CW: long (well over 3,000 characters)
Here's a premiere: the first #FollowFriday for #OpenSimulator.
For those who don't know what I'm talking about: OpenSimulator, also called #OpenSim, is a free and #OpenSource platform for 3-D #VirtualWorlds that uses largely the same technology as #SecondLife. It was launched as early as 2007. It mostly became a network of #federated, interconnected worlds (#grids) when the #Hypergrid was introduced in 2008. And "#Metaverse" has been a part of the standard OpenSim vocabulary since before 2010, too.
It currently measures about 420 public grids at various sizes from tiny to slightly larger than Second Life itself and countless private grids, the vast majority of which are on the Hypergrid.
So without further ado, here are some suggestions:- Shelenn Ayres

The #OSCC is a yearly community event with a whole number of panels about OpenSim in particular and virtual worlds in general. Expect #OSCC23 to happen in December.
→ @OpenSim Community Conference - Finally, the OpenSim community on #Lemmy
Not a user for a change, but a place on Lemmy for OpenSim users/avatars to meet and discuss.

@Holocluck Henly There's the #OSCC (OpenSimulator Community Conference; #OSCC23 in December; official website) which is an annual multiple-day conference with five adjacent expo regions.
Then there's the #HypergridInternationalExpo, #HIE in short (October 7th/8th; official website) which is practically the same for presenters and an audience whose native language is not English. And it doesn't have five standard regions worth of expo, "only" some booths along a path.
Then there's #OpenSimFest. You already know that, I guess. It doesn't have a website AFAIK, but here is a post on #OpenSimWorld.
The nearest major event is #OSG16B, the 16th #GridAnniversary of #OSgrid, the first, oldest and biggest #OpenSim #grid and the one with the most users (July 24th to 30th).
You can be glad that you haven't asked me in February. I would have had to explain #CornflakesWeek to you. -

Just a few reminders for #OpenSimulator #events this year:
The first and oldest #OpenSim grid, #OSgrid, will most likely celebrate its 16th birthday next month, probably towards the end of the month. The exact dates and the schedule for #OSG16B have yet to be announced, though.
The next date will be #OpenSimFest. Led by @Shelenn Ayres, #OSFest2023 is scheduled for September 15th to 30th and will feature events as well as (mostly commercial) merchants. See also here.
Not much time to catch your breath until #HypergridInternationalExpo (official website) which will return on October 7th and 8th after six years. And again, the organisers @Thirza and @Mal Burns Opensim are in the Fediverse already. #HIE is basically the #OSCC for non-English speakers; otherwise, the concept is very similar.
Speaking of which, we'll most likely have another OpenSimulator Community Conference this year. I expect #OSCC23 to take place in early December again, but this date is still TBA, too.
