AI is amazing but the game is still the same: we need to make a discovery and AI won't do that for you..
So NYC Postdocs, join us Thursday for this month's Postdoc Night Science event! We're meeting at a bar near Union Square for some science buddy "speed dating".
RSVP: tinyurl.com/3t5us6hp!
It's today!
Doing good science is 90% finding a science buddy to constantly talk to about the project. The Postdoc Night Science NYC club met last week in a Manhattan bar for 5 rounds of scientific buddy speed-dating discussions. Contact me with questions on how to organize such an event in your city!
Scientists on moving past being stuck: "Basically I'm just a lazy son of a bi*ch" – they would play music or paint and at some point that would free their mind up enough that they'd get past their block and then come back to the problem.

A crucial part of the project actually takes place in the exploration phase, where we must turn off judgment.. It was a pleasure to be on the "Better than Your Creator: on AI and Creativity" Podcast with Shirly Coifman to talk about the creative scientific process.
