NASA science is usually strongly driven by peer review & community-derived priorities. That's how we (as a country) know we're investing in "great science." That includes basic & applied research. Dictates coming down from the administration, bypassing that process, are not how we do "great science"
They keep saying (and Isaacman just repeated it) "lots of great science" but I don't see basic research.

A pause on puberty blockers and hormone treatment for new adolescent patients with gender dysphoria in Queensland’s public system will continue until at least 2031, the state’s health minister, Tim Nicholls, announced on Friday.
The decision comes despite a review by Victoria’s former chief psychiatrist, Prof Ruth Vine, now made public, finding that treatment decisions “must be informed by each individual’s presentation and circumstances”. Continue reading...

Our federal science funding agencies were designed to support science that is vetted and driven by scientists with a Congressional mandate to be for the public good. The OMB's proposed changes would replace that system with one driven by partisan cronies and special interests. 15/n

This is bad journalism.
It cannot be overstated how much harm has been caused by lumping "LLM driven toxic bullshit" in with the traditional understanding of AI as a computer science discipline.
The tools and techniques described in this article have nothing to do with LLM-based systems.

But we didn’t get that field. Instead we got the fields of obstetrics and gynecology driven by man “science.”
A field based on man “science” like “women are just lying when they say they feel pain when we take a hole punch to their cervix.”

The collapse of curiosity driven research has occurred in STEM too. Everything has to be outcomes focused - cure disease, grow better crops, etc. But so much of what humanity has discovered is from "basic" curiosity-driven science. I'm hugely in favor of funding curiosity in every discipline.

The science is unequivocal. From climate change to mass extinction, human-driven ecological destruction is accelerating. Dismissing this isn't skepticism; it's rejecting a mountain of evidence from every field of earth science.

People are shocked that (as a person with a genetics degree) I am insanely sceptical about all DNA harvesting organisations, whether clearly profit driven and science-lite ("find your ancestry") or those claiming to be science-driven and NHS-affiliated. But I keep getting my opinion validated :/
For 17 years, UK Biobank promised that "insurance companies...will not be given any individual’s information, samples or test results”.
Now an investigation reveals they have repeatedly shared data with insurance companies.
A shocking breech of trust.
