As I’m getting reorganized after Mysticon a simple links and images post:
Hand transplant surgeons say they’re so routine now that they should be covered by insurance. Not everyone agrees.
A biologist discusses his feelings after an AI outperformed him. Another researcher says scientists using AI for data analysis are doing it wrong.
How much of the Internet is fake?
A scientist offers revolutionary evidence that heart cells can regenerate. Years later, the results turn out to be bogus. The unsettling thing for me is that even though good science requires replicating results, repeated failures by other labs to confirm the findings didn’t seem to matter (one doctor dismissed the researchers as simply not being good enough to make regeneration work).
And despite the FBI’s claims, the science behind its photo analysis evidence looks dubious too.
