Congratulations Firefly on this successful moon landing! Love the silhouette picture! fireflyspace.com/news/blue-g…
Our new paper, led by @valentin_bickel, shows results of correlating fresh impact craters on Mars found in images with InSight seismometer events, allowing us to localize them in space and time. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.…
We are seeking thought-provoking position papers for ICML (deadline: Jan. 30, 2025): icml.cc/Conferences/2025/Cal… #MachineLearning
Very proud to announce the Consumers LEARN AI Act, led by Senators Kelly and Rounds. I have gotten to work with an amazing team on this over the past many months. kelly.senate.gov/newsroom/pr…
I recently talked to Nature about my work in Congress on AI legislation. nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Why has machine learning failed to have much impact in healthcare? Because the field doesn't focus on what actually matters.
We need to move from "machine learning ON healthcare data" to true "machine learning FOR healthcare".

Starting the day with the STPF AI Cohort @SerenaLBooth, Soribel Feliz, Eoghan Stafford, @rebvog and @marsdancer covering the use of generative AI tools, the need for rigorous fact and quality checking, and the future of #artificialintelligence and evidence-based policy! #AAASmtg

What would Mars look like from a future orbiting astronaut's POV?
The Odyssey orbiter captured its first images of the Red Planet’s curving horizon and layers of atmosphere, similar to the @Space_Station’s view of Earth. More on these new images: go.nasa.gov/3GinHhC
The U.S. and U.K. jointly released "Guidelines for secure AI system development." Some great ideas in here! (covers deployment and maintenance too) ncsc.gov.uk/files/Guidelines…

Read this entertaining, important book by @mlittmancs about how to communicate better with computers. He reminds us: "Machines are here to empower us." mitpress.mit.edu/97802625463…
I'm very proud to join the office of @SenMarkKelly for a year as an AI expert through the AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellowship program. What an honor!
Here's what I'm doing for the next year! Hello, Congress!
ALERT: AAAS has launched a new artificial intelligence (AI) fellowship to help Congress craft policies on and around #AI. Six @AAAS_STPF AI experts moved to D.C. in a matter of weeks to begin their fellowships. Read the full announcement here: brnw.ch/21wDeNp

Our wonderful team of analog astronauts from Spain finished the 1st half of their 2-week sim at #MDRS, learning how to live & work together in a Mars-like environment. Visit mdrs.marssociety.org to see daily reports & photos. #marsanalog @hypatia_mars #science #stem #utah 🇪🇸
Excited to share our latest paper on using machine learning to help advance planetary science! authors.elsevier.com/a/1fMtN…
