Now it sounds like a member of the US Air Force is either captured or dead. (They go...
@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... that’s the problem with every aspect of this war. No one can explain what the sacrifice is being weighed against. It isn’t that the weight is debatable or inadequate — it’s that no one ever bothered to put it there at all.
14 years after my mother’s dementia diagnosis we are coming to the end of this journey. Made it to the cemetery to finalize
some necessary details. So many thoughts and feelings running through me b...
@nprofile1q... Thank you for talking about this and for being a caretaker. I’ve been there. This uncelebrated work matters so much.

@nprofile1q... are you there?! One of the greatest places on Earth! I was just telling my son how it used to be a prison.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... I'm down with all of this. The conflation of the different types of AI also bothered me in the article.
I suspect that at some point this stuff is going to get regulated as a medical device and it will never withstand the scrutiny. There might be a path to make it all work, but we are not on that path at all right now.

@nprofile1q... I have various flavors of neutral-to-negative reaction.
As a patient my reaction is pretty neutral at the moment, because my family and I have low medical needs and this stuff is still pretty peripheral. If one of my doctors were using tools like this, I might say, "Cool, so now what do YOU think?"
As someone who does some advocacy in this space, my main concern is exacerbation of existing problems and biases across the board. Incentives in our system are still aligned to squeeze efficiencies out of every little transaction, not improve care. An individual doctor or nurse practitioner might use this to build amazing tools -- I've seen some who have! But the system will use it to deny care. The triage systems discussed in the article are a good idea in theory but a nightmare in the wrong hands.
My greatest concerns are as a citizen. If these were purely open source neutral technologies available at no cost, I might say, "What the heck, give it a whirl." But if my doctor expressed a lot of enthusiasm about AI, I might ask, "How much do you know about the companies who make these tools..." and let the conversation evolve from there. :-/

@nprofile1q... I am also on a UHC exchange plan. Trying to plot my escape because I don't trust them at all -- it was just the only affordable option.
1. From what I can tell the Democrats are doing the right thing connecting the upcoming funding bills to very specific and sensible reforms to ICE. Of course we want abolition, but this makes sense for this specific fight.
2. But there's one other thing I'd wish they'd do. I wish they would start articulating the demand that Trump or his cronies present some overall vision for their immigration policy. I want them to answer questions about economic impact, slower population growth, refugee status, the gamut.
3. Why? Because I think we have a real opportunity to finally -- FINALLY -- break free of the "border security" paradigm of immigration policy... the monstrosity that let Trump break through in the first place. I think Dems can use this wedge to do a lot more, but they have to play a long game, not just win the news cycle.
