Sra. Calviño, el Plan de Recuperación y los fondos europeos NO son instrumentos para su campaña.
Su Gobierno ha convocado elecciones para que “los españoles elijan las políticas”. Déjennos elegir. No comprometa a España con inversiones hasta el 2026 a 50 días de las elecciones.

Don't trust ChatGPT to work autonomously!
A lawyer uses ChatGPT to research and write a lawsuit. ChatGPT, predictably, proceeds to invent all the precedents cited. The judge reaction, below.

Clean regression discontinuity design showing large (1/5 reduction) causal impact of shingles vaccine on Alzheimer. Strong evidence of virus origin.
Fantastic thread explaining it.
Great news.
RT @PGeldsetzer1: Biggest thing to ever come out of my little group. Pls help spread this finding!
We found clean, CAUSAL evidence that the shingles vaccine prevents a good chunk of dementia cases. So, could a virus cause Alzheimer’s->YES!

RT @PGeldsetzer1: It does! We estimate that over a 7-year follow-up period, getting vaccinated averts one in five new dementia diagnoses. In the paper, we demonstrate through extensive robustness checks that it is essentially impossible that this finding is due to confounding.

This is paradise for getting at CAUSATION rather than correlation!
