These are very plausible upsides of AI. Let’s keep a weather eye on the corresponding downsides

Real-time intellectual cyborgs: We may one day perform AI real-time integration across all stages—from idea generation to discovery + publication. While this hasn't materialized yet, and there will be backlash, it seems viable. For now, check out this 🧵 7/7

We used deep learning for fMRI & EEG signals based on higher-order interactions. We combined diverse datasets from Latin America, the US, Europe, and Asia. Underlying inequalities in Latin America, as previously shown in risk factors ( and educational disparities (, would have a strong impact in brain clocks 🧵2/6

Remarkable that the Nobel Prizes in both physics AND in chemistry have gone to psychologists/cognitive neuroscientists - Geoff Hinton and Demis Hassabis. The 21st century is indeed the era of the mind. @GBHI_Fellows @tcddublin @PsychologyTCD @tcdTBSI @TCINeuroscience

Ireland is too dependent on other country’s science and technology. It desperately needs to raise its embarrassingly low investment in universities and research if we are to maintain our wealth. It could disappear in a flash. This is urgent @Paschald @tcdTBSI @tcddublin

Irish unis are behind due to poor staff/student ratio and infrastructure. Ireland is last in education funding in OECD out of 34 ‘fell most in Ireland Latvia and Mexico’. Can’t continue if Ireland is to be competitive. We are letting a generation down.

This paper by @GBHI_Fellows and faculty is crucial evidence for how socio-economic and environmental factors accelerate brain ageing across the world. Huge implications for global policy on preventing dementia.
