It must be great to be the NYTimes and know @AshleyRindsberg was on this beat literally years ago.

October was the month of mathematicians professionally crashing out over AI, and it's looking like in November it will be the economists' turn.
This is so obviously silly I have a hard time believing anyone would take it seriously. You can't do economics this way, you can't even think this way. It's anti-intellectual. marginalrevolution.com/margi…
This is absolutely brutal. An AI-delivered October surprise.

Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks.
By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time.
Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

Thanks but no. I found one of Havens' papers to be invalid. I don't have time for another.

A definitive Twitter experience for me was virologists (guys with labs, academic appointments at good places, and PI roles on NIH grants) telling me I was a stupid retard for entertaining the lab leak theory.
It demonstrated that there was no limit to the mendacity that the academic professional class would engage in.
