arguably, “you ask me i ask who” expresses a lot more than “I don’t know”
I would like to adapt Singapore's "Speak Good English" campaign to other cities with incomprehensible vernacular dialects, Toronto for example

the day i met chatgpt 3 years ago.
Chatted with @OpenAI’s newly launched #ChatGPT this morning around #globalhealth issues and #frugalinnovation. Its thoughts are more contemplative than many in the field. Try it here: https://t.co/EaCAWFUHHK
@RifatAtun, this is a sophisticated innovation. :)

I am a huge fan of Feeding America's allocation mechanism -- it's one of the greatest successes of modern market design, and I wrote a case study about it that I teach multiple times most years. But it's a tremendous oversimplification to just say "prices worked" in this
It is depressing that so many people just blanket oppose markets out of ideology even when creating a market mechanism for food banks lead to feeding way more people at a way lower cost. Prices are a powerful tool for allocating resources!

Prof Goldie taught the first MPH and, for many, our first Harvard module. As my earliest touch-points with global health eductn, she set the standards with innovative and engaging materials and pedagogy. Glad she’s able to tell her story her way now. https://t.co/QgbVl3Mhlq

An acclaimed researcher is an expert at explaining complicated problems. Now she has to confront the most vexing question: What is happening to her?
