Last year I wrote a paper on how "GenAI" is a risk for #citizenscience (it being an academic paper it's still slowly dying in review). One of the points was that using "AI" devalues the contributions made by human volunteers, leading to contributors (rightfully) disengaging.
Yesterday, #inaturalist announced an "AI"-partnership with Google, and unsurprisingly that's exactly the backlash they got…

LPO: Towards Accurate GUI Agent Interaction via Location Preference Optimization
The advent of autonomous agents is transforming interactions with Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) by employing natural language as a powerful intermediary. Despite the predominance of Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) methods in current GUI agents for achieving spatial localization, these methods face substantial challenges due to their limited capacity to accurately perceive positional data. Existing strategies, such as reinforcement learning, often fail to assess positional accuracy effectively, …

genetic_multiplex: Multiplex genetic interactions (2014)
Multiplex networks representing different types of genetic interactions, for different organisms. Layers represent (i) physical, (ii) association, (iii) co-localization, (iv) direct, and (v) suppressive, (vi) additive or synthetic genetic interaction. Edge direction (i,j) indicates gene i interacting with gene j.
This network has 461 nodes and 620 edges.
