Top cited AI articles since 2020 were all written by Microsoft, Meta, Alphabet-aligned researchers. Only exceptions: 2 articles by prestigious academic institutions… and the one on stochastic parrots by Timnit Gebru et al. (That really backfired on Google)https://www.zeta-alpha.com/post/must-read-the-100-most-cited-ai-papers-in-2022

Le successeur de #ChatGPT serait 500x plus puissants, selon certaines rumeurs. Ces rumeurs sont fausses (en tout cas selon le CEO d'OpenAI)... mais d'où sortent-elles ? Et comment ont-elles fait leur chemin jusque dans les journaux ?

OpenAI, circa 2015:
"Our goal is to advance digital intelligence in the way that is most likely to benefit humanity as a whole, unconstrained by a need to generate financial return."
OpenAI, circa 2023:
We want to make massive piles of money.

As the leader of a free and open-source community, it is always a great feeling to discover that some large-scale company uses your project inside their products. Today, a job offer indicates that Orthanc is used by Topcon Health in the context of eye imaging.
Besides this specific example, it would be so nice if such companies could learn to proactively propose their support to the maintainers of the free and open-source projects they use, for instance by establishing win-win research projects, so as to nurture the upstream work.
The #GNUHealth medical imaging packages allow a health institution to store the studies locally or link them to #Orthanc PACS server. #OpenScience
🔖 Do cancer researchers make their data and code available?
306 cancer studies:
16% shared data
4% shared analysis code
1% of data were FAIR (posted to a recognised repository, in a non-proprietary format, with an identifier and a license)
Cancer research transparency was this bad despite many journals having policies mandating openness.

X-ray technician's hand showing damage from radiation exposure, c.1900. This photograph from the Royal London Hospital demonstrates just how damaging the effects of radiation exposure can be. X-rays were first discovered in 1895 by Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, but their dangers were not yet understood.
Please note: the museum catalogue describes the person in this image as a "technician," not "technologist."
