'If the baby could speak, she would scream': the risky measures to feed small babies in Gaza
Infant formula is scarce after a plummet in aid access to Gaza and many women cannot breastfeed due to malnourishment.Dawoud Abu Alkas (The Japan Times)
Lizzie Wolkovich at Statmodeling (statistical modeling group at Columbia University) decided this week on some new rules for herself relating to graduate student training:
"I will only chair defenses where the the student states they did not use generative AI at all in the writing of their thesis."
"I will only join committees for graduate students when the students agree not to use generative AI at all or in limited (pre-defined) situations for their writing."
You can read her explanation in full at the link, but the gist of it is, it is not worth her time reading AI-generated text and writing feedback to try to help the student if the student didn't write it and it was AI-generated in the first place.
Another episode in the new saga of society trying to figure out how to incorporate (and when not to incorporate?) generative AI.

... show more图像展示了一辆色彩鲜艳的模型有轨电车,车身装饰有可爱的卡通角色,包括兔子、猪和一个类似章鱼的角色。电车的侧面印有“CHiiKAWA DAYS”字样,车头编号为1133。车顶有一个红色的受电弓,车窗上也贴有与车身图案一致的卡通贴纸。电车的背景是绿色的,与卡通角色的活泼形象相得益彰。
在图像的下方,有一个卡片,上面印有“CHiiKAWA DAYS”的字样,背景为浅蓝色和绿色的方格图案,与电车上的图案相呼应。卡片上同样有三个卡通角色,与电车上的角色一致,它们的背景是绿色的方格图案,上方有“CHiiKAWA DAYS”的字样,右下角有“[@]nagano”的标识。
图像右上角有“八通通 Octopus”的标志,表明这可能是与日本八通有轨电车相关的主题。整体图像色彩明亮,充满童趣,适合儿童和卡通爱好者。
