AI Alarm Bells – What’s the Panic About Now?
The "Godfather of AI" has a new warning for 2026. As models begin to demonstrate "recursive self-improvement," leading scientists are raising the alarm that our window for establishing hard-coded safety guardrails is closing much faster than policy can keep up.

Has anyone done a randomized and/or controlled version of this pre- versus post- test of an automatic order set change protocol?
https://doi.org/10.1002/jhm.70283
Highly scalable, if a health system is willing to experiment!

(It is IMHO symptomatic that the authors of the paper above, and in general the broader #x-risk / #EffectiveAltruism community, tend to go to great lengths to avoid talking about the obvious solution to unilateralist's curse and many other problems: fair, #democratic sharing of #power.) 12/12

Kayak: in principle, an application that may be well-served by "old" rules-based AI. Its function is supposed to be deterministic, needing more data ingestion & analysis than humans can tolerate.
But if they're calling it "AI" today, I'm sure it's a LLM/neural net gadget which will hallucinate flights & fares. Because we're playing out the theory that the #XRisk of so-called "AI" is in believing that it is smarter than us before it stops being surrealistically stupid.

A conceptual replication of a result from our U.S. participants in U.K. participants:
A reminder that #antibiotics are probably ineffective for respiratory infections reduced expectations of needless #antibiotics.

How can #hospitals easily reduce #medication orders that can increase #antibioticResistance?
After months of baseline #prescription tracking, a computer #nudge helped docs order 17-35% fewer extended-spectrum #antibiotics.

Early antibiotic treatment in patients hospitalized with non-severe #COVID19 didn't improve outcomes — if anything, early #antibiotics were actually linked to *poorer* clinical outcomes.

#Japan launched a national plan to reduce #AntimicrobialResistance in 2016.
Data from 2012 to 2020 show a pretty clear, abrupt, and consistent reduction in overall and inappropriate #antibiotic #prescription corresponding to the launch.

The two most recent episodes of #BioUnethical with David Thorstad, Emily Largent, and @GovindPersad were very (very!) good.
Hosts Leah Pierson and Sophie Gibert may be doing reflective discussion better than anyone — outstanding stage setting, questioning, improvising, etc.

Our latest preprint validates two low-cost global #risk reduction stimuli .
An infographic and a text message improved #antibiotic decisions in ways that could reduce existential risks of #AntimicrobialResistance.

Oilivia Parlow was a great advisee!

75% of clinicians see inappropriate antibiotic prescribing as driven (in part) by delays in processing diagnostic tests or cultures.
This perception was 30% more prevalent in #PrimaryCare than #Hospitals (N = 180).
