The last grand strategists: what Brzezinski and Kissinger could teach Trump [FREE TO READ] Living parallel lives, they counselled presidents and changed the course of the cold war. How would they steer America today?

The moral and intellectual pygmies around Trump might learn a thing or two from history and America's last grand strategists. Of course they won't. My weekend FT essay. on.ft.com/3GhNw4u

AI is transforming peer review — and many scientists are worried Artificial intelligence software is increasingly involved in reviewing papers, provoking interest and unease.

AI is transforming peer review, and some enthusiasts see AI automation as an inevitability. But many researchers, as well as journal publishers, view it as a disaster. Read the Nature feature. 🧪

An analysis of ways to decarbonize conference travel after COVID-19 Biennials, regional hubs and virtual attendance can slash emissions, new calculations show.

That reminds me of the argument for 'a three-hub model’ for such conferences to both curb emissions and ensure valuable in-person interaction: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

What a difference a week makes 😉

And if they work, these drugs will hit the market in the 2030s. That's how long clinical development takes. It is a painful lesson for the first wave of AI-driven biotech (Benevolent AI, Recursion & Exscientia, Owkin...) investors. DD is a long game.

A timely report as AI spreads - albeit at very uneven pace.

I particularly like that the authors encourage 'scenario planning to consider more extreme cases, even if currently […] unlikely,’ of AI taking over a majority of tasks.

Chuffed about the expanding footprint @neuripsconf.bsky.social of researchers from our directly funded labs and consulting teams. Enjoy Vancouver, everyone!

Enjoyed this Babbage podcast @economist.com about the Human Cell Atlas on the commute. A very accessible update on this truly global effort pairing biology, AI and medicine.

"They'll have a draft next year." 😀

Software is such an integral part of science - and it is amazing that this year's @www.helmholtz.de Software Award goes to Philip Weiler @helmholtzmunich.de @fabiantheis.bsky.social, Birgit Hassler @DLR and Axel Löwe @kitkarlsruhe.bsky.social 🎉

Let’s keep it focused, shall we?
