CaseHPOFreeText: Healthy from birth, this patient was referred to a psychiatric inpatient at 19Y with the weight loss and weakness, and the suspicion on anorexia nervosa. AN was not met according to the DSM-5 or ICD-10 (despite anorexic tendencies). There were also no tendencies towards an eating disorder. Patient developed progressive gait abnormality, along with bilateral dysmetria. MRI revealed a massive lesion with vascular characteristics suggestive of a HB in the fourth ventricle causing hypertensive hydrocephalus. Abdominal CT scan revealed cystic lesions throughout the parenchymatous portion of the pancreas, suspected to be related to VHLs. Together, supported the diagnosis of VHL. The patient underwent surgery of the brain, and radiotherapy which proved to work in small degrees.

I connect with this idea because in my own learning experiences, being recognized for my progress motivated me to keep trying and improving. Badges go beyond grades by showing effort and growth, which I have personally found encouraging.

I've used these type of independent activities like this in other classes, and they seemed to be beneficial because they keep students engaged after finishing their work while allowing others to continue learning at their own pace.

great quote. directly mentions my concept of requiring human judgement, and how not having a human in the loop can make work move faster, but can also lead to very costly mistakes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanval

"I’m going to slip into econ speak. So, apologies here. But, like, they’ve already kind of, like, maximized their utility subject to constraints. And I think that’s broadly true across people. Like, obviously, when you move away from the population studied in criminal justice and look at wealthier people or more advantaged people, you know, their constraints are different. Maybe they’re less, but they’ve already kind of maximized what they can given what they’re facing. And the remaining constraints in the world tend to be, they’re sticky, you know, they’re systemic. They’re things that change slowly over time, or maybe rapidly over time, given, you know, in the rare case of a real kind of moment of social revolution or technological revolution, I guess. But they’re not something that you can just do, like an NGO, can just implement a policy and, like, fix it or something."

Variant: VWF NM_000552.5: c.3310C>T p. (R1101W) Located in exon 26

Hadn't been reported previously Variant found to be inherited in trans from family analysis

According to the paper, they have classified with with ACMG guidelines as likely pathogenic.

Reasoning: Variant absent in the Korea Ref Genome Database and Allele Freq = 0.00086% in gnomAD (Evidence: PM2)

Variant detected in trans with another well-known pathologic variant (c.5797C>T) (Evidence: PM3)

Multiple missense variants are known to be pathogenic in RDEB (Evidence: PP2)

Various computational in silico predictive programs reported the variant as pathogenic (Evidence PP3)

As the two man prepare to fight. Florinda is in a moral crisis, unsure whether to pray for her brother or her lover. This is another display of violence by man affecting the ladies.

One of the most interesting aspects of writing about AI and LLMs right now is that if I say anything remotely positive, some people will accuse me of being a shill for Big AI. If I say anything remotely negative, others will accuse me of being insufficiently aware of the progress AI has made.

So I will put out a few personal statements about AI that might clarify where I am on this:

1. AI is not intelligent, at least not in the human sense of the word. It is a sophisticated tool for drawing inference from binary data and thus operates below a symbolic level.

2. AI, at least in the guise of LLMs, is not going to achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI) now or in the future.

3. AI is getting much better at approximating human behavior on a wide variety of tasks. It can be extremely useful without being intelligent, in the same way that an encyclopedia can be very useful without being intelligent.

4. For some tasks – such as translating between two languages – LLMs sometimes perform better than some humans perform. They do not outperform the best humans. This poses a significant challenge for human workers that we (collectively) have yet to address: Lower-skilled workers and trainees in particular begin to look replaceable, but we aren’t yet grappling with what happens when we replace them so they never become the experts we need for the high end. I think the decimation of the pipeline for some sectors is a HUGE unaddressed problem.

5. “Human parity” is a rather pointless metric for evaluating AI. It far exceeds human parity in some areas – such as throughput, speed, cost, and availability – while it falls far short in other areas. A much more interesting question is “where do humans and machines have comparative advantage and how can we combine the two in ways that elevate the human?”

6. Human-in-the-loop (HitL) is a terrible model. Having humans – usually underpaid and overworked – acting in a janitorial role to clean up AI messes is a bad use of their skill and knowledge. That’s why we prefer augmentation models, what we call “human at the core,” where humans maintain control. To see why one is better, imagine if you applied an HitL model to airline piloting, and the human only stepped in when the plane was in trouble (or even after it crashed). Instead, with airline piloting, we have the pilot in charge and assisted by automation to remain safe.

7. AI is going to get better than it is now, but improvements in the core technology are slowing down and will increasingly be incremental. However, experience with prompting and integrating data will continue to drive improvements based on humans’ ability to “trick” the systems into doing the right things.

8. Much of the value from LLMs for the language sector will come from “translation adjacent” tasks – summarization, correcting formality, adjusting reading levels, checking terminology, discovering information, etc. – tasks that are typically not paid well.

In the black southern community, daughters were punished more severely than their brothers. This is because of the already existing gender expectations placed on black women. The girls were always expected to remain quiet, however, it is sometimes possible for boys to interject as they have the possibility to preach in a church.

The only speech that was deemed orthodox for women to use, was talking into thin air. By doing that it inherently silenced their voice while giving them the illusion of actually being heard. On the contrary, black male preachers were to be heard and remembered.

The southern black community had a hierarchy for gender roles and children. Black males typically dominated preaching within the church which led to the women being dominate in "preaching" within the household. The kids were not allowed to give their own opinions on the topics discussed within the house as it was seen as them trying to be "equals" with the adults.

Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification analysis was performed for samples in which Sanger sequencing or WES failed to detect any disease-causing mutation.

Case Previous Testing: Total RNA was isolated from peripheral blood lymphocytes or lymphoblastoid cell lines and from frozen liver biopsy as described in Chomczynski and Sacchi (1987). For each patient two cDNA syntheses were performed: 10mg of total RNA with 800-1000 ng of oligo dT or 500ng of specific primer NR, mapping in the 3’UTR of OTC cDNA Identification of genetic lesions by amplification of the OTC mRNA, expressed in the liver tissue and intestine, from a non-specific tissue like PBL or lymphoblastoid cell lines. Some mutations, particularly those affecting splicing sites, may have a different expression in liver and PBL . In females, including manifesting carriers, this method allows the identification of deletions and gene rearrangements with certainty, but mutations, decreasing mRNA stability, are unlikely to be detected because the normal allele will constitute the majority of the RNA available for RT-PCR and will be preferentially amplified.

Supplemental Data: Case report section Notes: Hepatomegaly. This mutation, previously reported (Reish et al., 1993), has been correlated with a lethal disease form in a male patient, therefore the mild phenotype in our patient could be explained by a not completely unfavorable X-lyonization
