I'm Scott, a computational social scientist who writes about data science. I work to jumpstart the data careers of people from historically excluded groups. https://t.co/Gotzm5qTlt https://t.co/NQNRzuHD3O Let me know how I can help. #datafam #datascience #ds4a

So IBM just verified our banking + we have our vendor ID. Are you transacting in tech or… just acting? AI agent launch pending 🚀

Found a big contract on https://t.co/qQqVq3fjxy? Want to know why it was awarded or how it’s performing? Here’s how to combine public data with 5 CFR §1303 to get answers using FOIA. 🧵

“Between 2003 and 2024, the amount of time that Americans spent attending or hosting a social event declined by 50 percent. Almost every age group cut their party time in half in the last two decades” People are socializing a lot less

Integrated @IBMwatsonx with an agent I built with @clcoding and deployed it to @awscloud thanks to @AWSstartups and @IBMPartners today! Exciting times!

Details about the program are here:

Off to my next big adventure 🇬🇧 !!! Pleased to let you all know that I'll be headed to Oxford University next week to participate in their OSSEN program. I'll spend next week learning from some top-notch scholars about network science.

Great post from the one and only Malcolm Adams!!! #datafam #datascience #datajobs

Listening to one of my most respected peers @dscottdegeest talk about data science careers! You don’t want to skip this one! 🔥 https://t.co/apj39KJivJ

People say financial literacy is useless, how can it be worthless to learn: how taxes really work how to protect assets through law how to build and leverage credit how to pass down wealth without penalties how to invest and build wealth In addition to many other things…

Solve big problems, they pay better.

There is a field experiment showing this exact effect. Introducing GPT tutors increases performance by *a lot*--students seem to be picking up the material much faster--but when GPT is removed those who had access perform *much worse* compared to those w/o access. 1/4

My friend landed the Perplexity AI Fellowship!!!! Congratulations Scott 🎉🎉🥳 @dscottdegeest So many more opportunities to come from here!

@perplexity_ai I'm particularly excited to talk to more thought leaders in the space and spend some time thinking about how I can apply what I learn there to my work on AI-focused supply chain analytics. Other Perplexity Fellows, let's connect! 3/n

@perplexity_ai The fellowship also includes some opportunities to network, build some AI tooling, and some opportunities to work with Perplexity Enterprise Pro. 2/n

@perplexity_ai Over the next several weeks, I'll attend a series of fireside chats from people like Jensen Huang, Aaron Levie, Roy E. Bahat, Ali Ghodsi, Eric Glyman, Matthew Granade, Aaron Linksy, Amjad Masad, and Ryan Petersen. 1/n

Excited to share with my network that I've been accepted into the Perplexity AI Business Fellowship. Details below. @perplexity_ai

Just left Ukraine. What I saw proved to me we can’t give up on the Ukrainian people. Everyone wants this war to end, but any agreement has to protect Ukraine’s security and can’t be a giveaway to Putin. Let me tell you about my trip and why it’s important we stand with Ukraine.🧵

Work on it..

Hilarious story. Heritage foundation economist says on a podcast today “this whole idea that tariffs can never serve a good purpose, that’s just not correct”. Josh digs up this 2021 heritage foundation article to dunk. Heritage deletes the article in 30 minutes lol.
