It's time to remove laptops from classrooms. 24 experiments: Students learn more and get better grades after taking notes by hand than typing. It's not just because they're less distracted—writing enables deeper processing and more images. The pen is mightier than the keyboard.

Great to see @EricTopol join @StanfordMed Dean Lloyd Minor on The Minor Consult. They explore why immune health may matter more than genetics for longevity, and how new tech could make prevention personal. https://t.co/bVPbaSboiU

This week's @Nature cover highlights a report of A.I. mediated distortion When #ChatGPT was asked to rate 40,000 résumés, it ranked the older male candidates as better quality than the younger female applicants https://t.co/qTSHdxF8Ia

It’s endlessly impressive how Esther Duflo balances life as a Nobel-winning economist, professor, and mother! In @HarvardBiz, she says believing she has “the best job in the world” helps. As a founder, CEO, and mother, I relate: passion drives my work. https://t.co/jBKcrTJuzn

The Nobel laureate talks about why she became an economist, how she and her colleagues popularized the use of randomized controlled trials in their field, which tools and interventions have shown...

It’s never harmful to exercise precaution when it comes to preventing a disease as devastating as Parkinson’s. In @WSJ, @rddysum spoke to @RayDorseyMD about how to avoid the external factors contributing to the disease. https://t.co/jwsV7ZihwP

Some doctors say the chemicals all around us may be increasing our risk of Parkinson’s disease, the fastest-growing neurodegenerative disorder in the world.

In my humble opinion, launching fully autonomous AI researchers and letting AI self-improve is a type of digital gain-of-function research that's extremely reckless - what could possibly go wrong?
OpenAI just announced that they aim to develop fully automated AI researchers by March 2028. This forms part of an incredibly dangerous path to develop superintelligence. Here's why. Thread 🧵

Thrilled to see If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies by @ESYudkowsky & @So8res of @MIRIBerkeley named one of @NewYorker’s Best Books of 2025 so far, a recognition of its urgent questions about AI & our collective future. https://t.co/SYhEtWNNIk

It’s scary that Parkinson’s Disease is largely caused by exposure to harmful chemicals, but here is a primer on how to avoid them. Drawing on @MichaelOkun and @RayDorseyMD’s research, @meeri_kim reports on ways to reduce exposure for @WashingtonPost. https://t.co/BStm7fzEJG

Research on Parkinson’s is revealing several risk factors related to our lifestyles and environment, and you can act on some of them.

“We’ve already seen AIs try to escape, they’re just not smart enough to do so yet.” — @So8res of @MIRIBerkeley on @CNN with @Smerconish. AI risks aren’t theoretical, but the future doesn’t have to be catastrophic if we build safeguards now. https://t.co/AIWS09qbLt

Nate Soares joins Smerconish to discuss his new book, “If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies” about what he says is the alarming progression of AI and what that means for future generations.

I did not have "Whoopi Goldberg talks about If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies on a morning show" on my bingo sheet for the year

Even Whoopi Goldberg is sounding the alarm on runaway AI. On @TheView, she highlighted If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies by @MIRIBerkeley’s @So8res & @ESYudkowsky, a book asking: what happens if AI surpasses human control?

NYC vibe report: there are AI ads everywhere (yudkowsky on the C train, what a world!) but obvious adoption lags (no waymos, people still google things) and a vaguely european revanchism is setting in. cultural production has shifted west. (food still rules.)

What can AI really do for medicine today, and what’s still hype? On @DKThomp’s Plain English podcast, @StanfordMed Dean Lloyd Minor explores AI’s role in diagnosis, drug discovery, trials & chronic care. https://t.co/UrZWCLeqSU

“In Silicon Valley it’s like everyone has seen a ghost. We don’t know how long there is on the clock” — @So8res, President of @MIRIBerkeley in a story by @chaykak Without guardrails, AI could have us racing the clock toward extinction https://t.co/ab4k2HUrRD

An online joke reflects a sincere fear about how A.I. automation will upend the labor market and create a new norm of inequality.

“There’s a big myth about Parkinson's… that it’s just a brain disease.” @drmarkhyman, @RayDorseyMD, and @MichaelOkun clarify this misconception on The Dr. Hyman Show. I’m proud to support the authors’ efforts to eradicate PD in their @NYT bestselling book THE PARKINSON’S PLAN.

I was thrilled to see @IndianExpress cover THE LONDON CONSENSUS today. A truly great newspaper with insight into @LSEnews @AndresVelasco’s new book on economic policy “in the light of the new economic challenges [and] transformative technologies”. https://t.co/ru7UNVoNTE

As many as 55 leading international economists have drafted a London Consensus, which they claim offers an alternative to the 'outdated' Washington Consensus, whose policy prescriptions of trade...

“AI is more dangerous than nukes. A nuke levels a city, a superintelligence levels a planet” - @So8res, President of @MIRIBerkeley, in @Politico If AI poses an existential threat, our leaders can’t afford to be careful. We need them to be courageous. https://t.co/xzA2cYCP0Y
