Ugh Google will "recalibrate" the level of risk it is willing to take when releasing AI tools, due to competitive pressure from OpenAI. This is the kind of market-driven arms race we do NOT need when it comes to tech that could drastically reshape society, for better and worse.

In an acute visit, a patient seemingly out of nowhere said, “I know my weight is probably affecting this too.” I paused, “Actually, I don’t think this problem has anything to do with weight so I wasn’t going to bring it up, but I also don’t see weight as an indicator of health.”

HUGE thank you to the experts who testified at @MA_Senate Climate Cmte hearing today. It’s clear the path forward will include scaling novel #carbonremoval methods. MA has the opportunity to step up and be a hub for #CDR innovation, while creating jobs and benefiting the economy.

THREAD. I went to a lecture at Oxford this week on "inequality" by economist Raj Chetty. It was a reminder of the lack of rigor and moral corruption in fancy academic circles.

The distinguished group of scientists who will serve as Carbon to Sea’s Scientific Advisory Board are Carlos Duarte, Julie Pullen, @David_Koweek, Sara Nawaz & Yui Takeshita.

Broaden Research on Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement to Better Characterize Its Social Impacts - new Perspective by Sara Nawaz Javier Lezaun Jose Maria and Phil Renforth pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

There should be a team of publicly funded social scientists across the country doing empirical research (public engagement, surveys, interviews) to inform and support responsible deployment of climate solutions. WHY IS THIS NOT HAPPENING?!!?

The *Social Considerations & Public Engagement* chapter of the “Guide to Best Practices for Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement Research” (tinyurl.com/OAEGuide) is available for public review: sp.copernicus.org/preprints/sp-2… Terre Satterfield, Sara Nawaz & I look forward to your comments!

my advice for new phds is not to use your institution's microsoft 365 OneNote account to store all of your notes since there is 💫 no way to export from an institutional account 💫 when you graduate hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

This is an example of climate coloniality. There are dozens if not hundreds across the world, in countries facing various forms of neocolonialism under the continuities of colonial-capitalism in the face of increasing ecological devastations and climate change.

The Biden admin wants the oil industry to lead on direct air capture. That risks deepening opposition from those already skeptical of the tech. heatmap.news/economy/biden-…

Really excited to work on this project with David Ho and colleagues! Figuring out how potentially affected +interested communities think about mCDR needs to be a central part of this research in order to see if/how we can scale up responsibly

One key reason why the military-installed regime in Bangladesh is struggling to restore law and order is its own abuse of power, including purges, crackdowns and arbitrary arrests, as well as its condoning of Islamist rampages. Using a traditionally pliant judiciary, it
