Couldn’t have been happier about the outcome of our #ica26 Causal Turn Panel.
The panelists highlighted the needs to move forward:
1. build theories on time and sequence in media effects
2. learn to control for confounding factors
3. develop analytical approaches like sequences analysis

"We lay down our arms
So we can reach out our arms
To one another
We seek harm to none and harmony for all
Let the globe, if nothing else, say this is true:
That even as we grieved, we grew
That even as we hurt, we hoped
That even as we tired, we tried" #AmandaGorman

This week, I’ve been reading a lot about #AI, #MachineLearning, #LargeLanguageModels and the illusions of understanding in scientific research. It’s fascinating but also concerning, when we consider the advantages but also the risks and limitations of these tools. So much work to do!

What’s funny with #gradschool sometimes you have no clue where time goes. You sign up for RCR trainings, you totally forget about them. End of semester arrives, all big projects, grading, course, conference deadlines, paper reviews, rejection are chasing you. Everything everywhere all at once. #Phd
