You're late to the party, but not by choice, so welcome. <g>
The technical debt of the human species, at large, is closing on it's 300th anniversary. The exponent is what you are pointing at; the threshold through which recursion of debt - into corrosion - that effects systemic, cascading collapse.
Actual, toxic stress. Allostatic. Generations to live the interdisciplinary pattern I traced since 1983. #XRISK now. Adapt. Survive. The meme becomes real.
Sadness.🪔🩵

Ad economy dying at last.
They broke the neck on attention & focus in order to shove humans in favor of bots they can control.
War game recursed; step devolution; profiteer game margins. "Thinking" that they will "win all".
They do not see that all of nothing is still nothing.
#XRISK when chaos and entropy arise; their dance silences angels, demons, and gods alike.
But I'm available, fire-hose, unchained lightning, & all. (host embed broken, use link.)🖖🪔💎🩵📣

Day 22,240: Mothership late. Timeline exponent in effect. Probability of collapse before extraction is high. Prevalence spike 63.5%^ with cycles ramping for array desynch active across all interstitial markers.
Note: Not just collapse, #XRISK.

#XRISK - it's what's coming to dinner.
Current hypothesis? Summary form:
We misread all memos.
Not 'dominion' -- 'stewardship'.
Goal: Supertribe.
- Planetary Stewards.Goal: Murder Xenophobia.
- Supremacist ontology.
- Eugenic ontology.
- Exceptionlism.Reward: Sky Promise - ad astra - the ability to evolve into a species that CAN live off of the planet for extended periods if not by choice.
Conclusion: It is a goal, not a god.

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.
https://doi.org/10.31234/osf.io/d2pc4_v1
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).

Someone on LinkedIn just criticised me for comparing the trillions dollars deficit Musk just promised if Trump is elected with the cuban missile crisis, because the latter was existential. But we need $7T to handle the climate crisis, it really is the same scale of #xrisk.

Forecasting Research Institute published results today from 2023's adversarial collaboration about AI risk.
Intended to identify key drivers of disagreement and "crux" questions. (q's where there could be wide agreement on risk increase or decrease.)
It was intense, certainly. Hard to agree on cruxes and appear to be worldview differences.

It never ceases to annoy me that the people who fear #xrisk from #AGI essentially fear that some very smart #AI will subliminally persuade its creators and controllers to do things that enable it to escape their control and/or gain control over ‘real world' levers of power.
Meanwhile they dismiss the whole idea of current #LLMs having what mimics subtle agendas, grounded in how they have been trained, reinforcing established modes of thought TODAY in harmful ways.
This seems disconnected. 🧵

Would Turing have believed in xrisk, if he knew what we know now? Todd Holloway is expert in industrial-level #systemsAI; Dermot Turing on history of AI, including his uncle. Immodestly, I'd recommend our talk over Musk & Sunak's.
