I asked Opus and Suno to turn my article on the "China shock" narrative into a song. It's a brave new world.

Mietin pitkään kirjoitanko tänne mitään tapahtuneesta mutta ehkä tämä pitää kertoa, varoittavana esimerkkinä. Seuraa ketju vakavasta asiasta. Kuvan reitti on viimeisin pyöräilemäni matka, reilu viikko sitten sunnuntaina.

Is GenAI causing the relative decline in early-career hiring? Our latest research finds that these effects may be conflated with another important driver: the rise of WFH arrangements (1/N)

Snow's gone, but the scooter is still in the same place @BirdRide.
Hey @BirdRide there are at least a dozen of your scooters abandoned around Helsinki. Despite reports, you have not collected them. The scooter in the photo was reported to you 1 month ago via your website, and today it is in the same place. Please clean up after yourself thnx!

There's lots more stuff in the paper, incl. details on how we can be sure that this really is a demand shock due to ChatGPT launch. The paper is open access, and available here: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…. I also blogged about this (in Finnish):etla.fi/ajankohtaista/kolumn…

Automating AI research is exciting! But can LLMs actually produce novel, expert-level research ideas? After a year-long study, we obtained the first statistically significant conclusion: LLM-generated ideas are more novel than ideas written by expert human researchers.

Just put together a simple guide on how to vectorize R plots in PowerPoint. Check out my first Medium article 🥳 nalinan.medium.com/how-to-ve…
It took me SEVEN years to figure out that you can save a ggplot as a vectorized .svg file ggsave("file.svg"). The svg file can be opened on powerpoint and it will be completely vectorized, even text are still recognized as text boxes! No more recreating plots on illustrator!!!!!
