Harvard University says it will "not accept" 10 demands by the Trump administration, which are ostensibly to address antisemitism and include shuttering of DEI programs and restricting acceptance of international students who are "hostile to the American values and institutions." In an email to the university community, President Alan M. Garber said Harvard had been told it would need to comply if it would like to "maintain financial relationship with the federal government."

After significant pressure from the city of Cambridge, the American Association of University Professors and Harvard faculty, staff, students, and alumni, Harvard issued this very (for them) powerful letter promising not to cave to federal pressure: harvard.edu/president/news/202

Protest makes a difference. So does calling your alma mater. So do city council resolutions. Public pressure is what will keep our community institutions on the right track or get them back on track if they are not.

Recommit today to picking something to work on, no matter how small it feels, that gets you involved in fighting what is going on. There are so many ways to fight and we need them all.

Hilft #KI dem Menschen, bessere Entscheidungen zu treffen? 👩‍💻

Diese Frage wird am 4. März von Kosuke Imai, Professor am Department of Government und am Department of Statistics der #HarvardUniversity, diskutiert. Dabei zeigt er anhand eines statistischen Bewertungsrahmens für experimentelle und beobachtende Studien, wie die Leistung von drei alternativen Entscheidungssystemen – Mensch allein, Mensch mit KI und KI allein – miteinander verglichen werden kann.

Die Veranstaltung beginnt um 12 Uhr im Raum O 131 (Wilhelm-Müller-Hörsaal). 📅 Der Eintritt ist frei. Der Vortrag wird in englischer Sprache gehalten.
