Excited to share that I've joined MIT as an assistant professor in EECS! I'm thrilled to join many thoughtful, inspiring colleagues. Looking ahead, I'm working to develop statistical principles for AI models so that we can use them for science and reliable automated systems.

For all the people who followed me recently because I posted some weird posterior distributions, I have made more than 20 hours of free lectures on Bayesian stats and causal inference just for you👇 x.com/rlmcelreath/st…

Hi #EconTwitter! In search of a solid intro to probability theory? Check out this very nice book by Joe Blitzstein (Joe Blitzstein, Harvard University) and Jessica Hwang. It's packed with examples and exercises, focuses on learning through simulation, and stresses real-world applications.
