Posting this paper because it's a neat idea but also because the electrophysiology in the paper was done by Cecilia Velasco who was previously in @roylelab as an ERASMUS student. Congrats to her!

I'm grateful that the BBC Sounds app, unlike iPlayer, has been available in foreign countries. I've enjoyed brilliant documentaries, audiobooks and dramas through it. I've been working my way systematically through the full Drama on 4 archive. So good - the writing, acting and immersive audio! Now I've learnt BBC Sounds will no longer be available outside the UK after July 21st. Am mentioning in case anyone else, like me, wants to binge their backlog before it shuts.

This is from Drunken Master II. I remember watching this scene on the TV using a video tape. At one point I paused the tape to get some food or something, and Indiana Jones was playing on broadcast. It looked so slow and clumsy compared to Jacky Chan and his team's moves. And Jacky didn't use stunt men or CGI!

IA: 4 preguntas que debemos hacernos antes de usar cualquier herramienta de inteligencia artificial
Sasha Luccioni, una investigadora experta en la ética de la inteligencia artificial, propone cuatro preguntas claves que debes hacerte cuando uses IA.Rebecca Thorn (BBC News Mundo)
Al revés, de la 4 a la 1, sería aceptable. Digo yo que primero es mejor plantearse si usar una solución de IA (4), qué riesgos tiene (3) y cómo interpretar sus resultados (2), antes de elegir cuál (1).
Primero de alfabetización mediática: es importante siempre saber los intereses del experto que recomienda para poder ser crítico.
