If you ever wanted to know how an inaugural lecture works in the Netherlands, or what I talked about in mine, I put the materials here. I talked about bottlenecks of diagnostic systems, problems of clinical and scientific utility, and how to make a better DSM-6. eiko-fried.com/blog/my-inau...

1/ Three years later... PyVBMC 1.5 is out! With A LOT of improvements, dear Bayesians. We also made a 3-min video on how it works. Come for my beautifully resonant voice (you deserve the real deal rather than an AI one), stay for all the goodies below.

Congrats to Mike Woodford on winning the Nobel Prize! Some of his recent work is also quite exciting, working on how "cognitive noise" and "cognitive imprecision" play a foundational role in decision making: blogs.cuit.columbia.edu/mw2230/recen...

When Clastra tried one task that @talha-ozudogru.bsky.social developed, with simple bot traps such as invisible text and AI instructions, it ignored them, responding like a human would. So basic countermeasures won't work (we haven't explored more advanced ones, and that's an arms race). 8/n
