Just before the election, the FT interviewed Andrew Epstein, the creative director of Zohran Mamdani’s campaign, spilling the secrets of how they used social media to help build the NY mayoral candidate's profile and agenda. on.ft.com/48WbezL
My new chapter “Conceptual Engineering of Medical Concepts,” just out in New Perspectives on Conceptual Engineering vol 3 (Springer).

As ChatGPT becomes a go-to tool for students, we’re committed to ensuring it fosters deeper understanding and learning.
Introducing study mode in ChatGPT — a learning experience that helps you work through problems step-by-step instead of just getting an answer.

2 are about praying for Francis
3 criticize the Trump admin or Vance over immigration
