Der Emissionshandel sollte die marktwirtschaftliche Lösung der Klimakrise sein - und sie funktioniert. Nun soll Lobbydruck all die Firmen bestrafen, die entsprechend investiert haben, und die Versager belohnen.
Das darf nicht wahr sein 🤯!

A bit late (this was published more than 2 weeks ago), but I still find it fascinating: "in the rich world the early 1990s were an inflection point. Since then, the age-adjusted death rate has been falling, slowly but steadily, year after year." Yay science!

Title page of the book "Open Borders" by Caplan and Weinersmith
Just finished "Open Borders", a very interesting perspective, especially as today every second person seems to blame immigration for all problems.
In December, I posted about our new paper on mastering board games using internal + external planning. 👇
Here's a talk now on Youtube about it given by my awesome colleague John Schultz!

Workshop alert 🚨
We'll host in ICLR 2025 (late April) a workshop on modularity, encompassing collaborative + decentralized + continual learning.
Those topics are on the critical path to building better AIs.
Interested? submit a paper and join us in Singapore!

Tweet from 2021-03-28. The text reads "Gerhard Richter while painting 'Ruhrtalbrücke', 1969". The image shows Richter painting, distorted in a crude approximation of the style of Richter.
2) This was after I had visited a Gerhard Richter exhibition and taken a picture of a movie showing him painting. I thought it would be interesting to try to digitally reproduce his way of distorting painted images by smudging the paint. This was surprisingly difficult but I posted it anyway.
Tweet from 2021-05-25. Text says "Before vaccination / after vaccination." The tweet contains two images of a sunny, green landscape.
I just deleted all my tweets from X. Most of them were actually from 2008-2011. I will only save two of the later ones here by reposting (might not be good style but it's interesting to go back in time).
1) I guess this was before/after my first COVID vaccination, cycling there and back:
Ein Screenshot aus der Onleihe App. Zufällig wurden mir "Schuld" von Ferdinand von Schirach und "Unschuld" von Jonathan Franzen direkt nacheinander angezeigt. Als Hörbuch dauert das zweite etwa 7 mal so lange.
Unschuld scheint irgendwie komplexer zu sein als Schuld.

AI for science could be more impactful than chatbots. It is already helping win Nobel prizes and accelerating drug development and materials discovery.
Today we published an essay about it: why it matters, how it’s happening and its implications. Here is a summary from an econ / social sci lens.
Unbedingt lesenswert:
