#SICSS The SICSS-Roma Tor Vergata 2023 event was a great success! Thanks to all for participating, this is a truly inspiring community and we had so much fun this week! 😀

We had a fantastic time at the #ODISSEI summer school #SICSS in Rotterdam! Our #MachineLearning workflows were put to the test on a social dataset focused on fertility. Thanks to everyone who participated and made it a memorable two days in the summer school!

From Stephen Ge, an amazing tool for anyone interested in doing computational social science but intimidated by coding! Participants of #SICSS will love this! @cbail

Introducing RTutor.ai, an AI-powered app that lets you chat with your data in English! RTutor uses Davinci (#ChatGPT’s sibling) to turn requests into R code, which is executed & results are shown instantly, available as a HTML report in seconds.

Available locally as an R package github.com/gexijin/RTutor

N😍 w paper alert!

From my coauthor Doug Guilbeault:

"Is the enemy of your enemy your friend? In a new paper we show the opposite, where exposure to the threat of a common enemy increased polarization among Reps and Dems. Our evidence comes from a pre-registered bot experiment during the 2020 US-Iran Crisis"

Can anyone please point me to lists of academics and/or social scientists that others have made? Looking for the equivalent of #academictwitter and any #sicss (Summer Institute in Computational Social Science) folks.
