Johnny Ly has been the head chef at Green Man's Arms for five and a half years, bringing creativity and passion to plant-based cooking. His journey began at University House at Melbourne Uni, where he completed his apprenticeship and worked for a decade, gaining experience across a variety of cuisines. After stints at RACV fine dining and vegan eateries like The Alley and Serotonin Eatery, he was drawn back to restaurant-style dining, ultimately landing at Green Man's Arms. Johnny takes an innovative approach to plant-based food, reimagining classic dishes while accommodating dietary needs. He credits his mother for sparking his love of food and fosters a collaborative kitchen where his team shares in the creative process. For Johnny, food is deeply personal; a way to evoke memories, bring people together, and create something meaningful.

With Treasurer Jim Chalmers set to hand down the Federal Budget next week, we thought it would be a good time to dive into the process of how it gets made and how the media reports on it. James Chessell, a Walkley Award-winning journalist and former Managing Director of Publishing at Nine Entertainment, is well-versed in covering budgets. Plus, his former time working as a staffer for Joe Hockey makes him uniquely qualified on the topic. Club Picks: This episode of Politics with Michelle Grattan with economist Chris Richardson. She's the doyen of political coverage out of Canberra's Press Gallery, and he's the go-to guru for anyone looking to make sense of the Budget. Ahead of its release, they set the scene for what's on the government's economic plate. This piece from 2017 by Dr Denis Muller, a journalism expert from Melbourne Uni, goes into the art of the leak… And speaking of leaks, the mother of them all came about in 1980 when then-Ten News political reporter Laurie Oakes got access to the Budget in a dark Canberra car park 2 days ahead of its release… This clip of how it unfolded on air is fun, if only for then Treasurer John Howard's reaction…

Academic Research Researchers Use GPT-4 To Generate Feedback on Scientific Manuscripts https://hai.stanford.edu/news/researchers-use-gpt-4-generate-feedback-scientific-manuscripts https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.01783 Two episodes ago I shared the news that for some major scientific publications, it's okay to write papers with ChatGPT, but not to review them. But… Combining a large language model and open-source peer-reviewed scientific papers, researchers at Stanford built a tool they hope can help other researchers polish and strengthen their drafts. Scientific research has a peer problem. There simply aren't enough qualified peer reviewers to review all the studies. This is a particular challenge for young researchers and those at less well-known institutions who often lack access to experienced mentors who can provide timely feedback. Moreover, many scientific studies get “desk rejected” — summarily denied without peer review. James Zou, and his research colleagues, were able to test using GPT-4 against human reviews 4,800 real Nature + ICLR papers. It found AI reviewers overlap with human ones as much as humans overlap with each other, plus, 57% of authors find them helpful and 83% said it beats at least one of their real human reviewers. Academic Writing with GPT-3.5 (ChatGPT): Reflections on Practices, Efficacy and Transparency https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3616961.3616992 Oz Buruk, from Tampere University in Finland, published a paper giving some really solid advice (and sharing his prompts) for getting ChatGPT to help with academic writing. He uncovered 6 roles: Chunk Stylist Bullet-to-Paragraph Talk Textualizer Research Buddy Polisher Rephraser He includes examples of the results, and the prompts he used for it. Handy for people who want to use ChatGPT to help them with their writing, without having to resort to trickery Considerations for Adapting Higher Education Technology Course for AI Large Language Models: A Critical Review of the Impact of ChatGPT https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/machine-learning-with-applications/articles-in-press This is a journal pre-proof from the Elsevier journal "Machine Learning with Applications", and takes a look at how ChatGPT might impact assessment in higher education. Unfortunately it's an example of how academic publishing can't keep up with the rate of technology change, because the four academics from University of Prince Mugrin who wrote this submitted it on 31 May, and it's been accepted into the Journal in November - and guess what? Almost everything in the paper has changed. They spent 13 of the 24 pages detailing exactly which assessment questions ChatGPT 3 got right or wrong - but when I re-tested it on some sample questions, it got nearly all correct. They then tested AI Detectors - and hey, we both know that's since changed again, with the advice that none work. And finally they checked to see if 15 top universities had AI policies. It's interesting research, but tbh would have been much, much more useful in May than it is now. And that's a warning about some of the research we're seeing. You need to really check carefully about whether the conclusions are still valid - eg if they don't tell you what version of OpenAI's models they've tested, then the conclusions may not be worth much. It's a bit like the logic we apply to students "They've not mastered it…yet" A SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) Analysis of ChatGPT in the Medical Literature: Concise Review https://www.jmir.org/2023/1/e49368/ They looked at 160 papers published on PubMed in the first 3 months of ChatGPT up to the end of March 2023 - and the paper was written in May 2023, and only just published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research. I'm pretty sure that many of the results are out of date - for example, it specifically lists unsuitable uses for ChatGPT including "writing scientific papers with references, composing resumes, or writing speeches", and that's definitely no longer the case. Emerging Research and Policy Themes on Academic Integrity in the Age of Chat GPT and Generative AI https://ajue.uitm.edu.my/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/12-Maria.pdf This paper, from a group of researchers in the Philippines, was written in August. The paper referenced 37 papers, and then looked at the AI policies of the 20 top QS Rankings universities, especially around academic integrity & AI. All of this helped the researchers create a 3E Model - Enforcing academic integrity, Educating faculty and students about the responsible use of AI, and Encouraging the exploration of AI's potential in academia. Can ChatGPT solve a Linguistics Exam? https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/2311/2311.02499.pdf If you're keeping track of the exams that ChatGPT can pass, then add to it linguistics exams, as these researchers from the universities of Zurich & Dortmund, came to the conclusion that, yes, chatgpt can pass the exams, and said "Overall, ChatGPT reaches human-level competence and performance without any specific training for the task and has performed similarly to the student cohort of that year on a first-year linguistics exam" (Bonus points for testing its understanding of a text about Luke Skywalker and unmapped galaxies) And, I've left the most important research paper to last: Math Education with Large Language Models: Peril or Promise? https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4641653 Researchers at University of Toronto and Microsoft Research have published a paper that is the first large scale, pre-registered controlled experiment using GPT-4, and that looks at Maths education. It basically studied the use of Large Language Models as personal tutors. In the experiment's learning phase, they gave participants practice problems and manipulated two key factors in a between-participants design: first, whether they were required to attempt a problem before or after seeing the correct answer, and second, whether participants were shown only the answer or were also exposed to an LLM-generated explanation of the answer. Then they test participants on new test questions to assess how well they had learned the underlying concepts. Overall they found that LLM-based explanations positively impacted learning relative to seeing only correct answers. The benefits were largest for those who attempted problems on their own first before consulting LLM explanations, but surprisingly this trend held even for those participants who were exposed to LLM explanations before attempting to solve practice problems on their own. People said they learn more when they were given explanations, and thought the subsequent test was easier They tried it using standard GPT-4 and got a 1-3 standard deviation improvement; and using a customised GPT got a 1 1/2 - 4 standard deviation improvement. In the tests, that was basically the difference between getting a 50% score and a 75% score. And the really nice bonus in the paper is that they shared the prompt's they used to customise the LLM This is the one paper out of everything I've read in the last two months that I'd recommend everybody listening to read. News on Gen AI in Education About 1 in 5 U.S. teens who've heard of ChatGPT have used it for schoolwork https://policycommons.net/artifacts/8245911/about-1-in-5-us/9162789/ Some research from the Pew Research Center in America says 13% of all US teens have used it in their schoolwork - a quarter of all 11th and 12th graders, dropping to 12% of 7th and 8th graders. This is American data, but pretty sure it's the case everywhere. UK government has published 2 research reports this week. Their Generative AI call for evidence had over 560 responses from all around the education system and is informing UK future policy design. https://www.gov.uk/government/calls-for-evidence/generative-artificial-intelligence-in-education-call-for-evidence One data point right at the end of the report was that 78% of people said they, or their institution, used generative AI in an educational setting Two-thirds of respondents reported a positive result or impact from using genAI. Of the rest, they were divided between 'too early to tell', a bit of +positive and a bit of negative, and some negative - mainly around cheating by students and low-quality outputs. GenAI is being used by educators for creating personalized teaching resources and assisting in lesson planning and administrative tasks. One Director of teaching and learning said "[It] makes lesson planning quick with lots of great ideas for teaching and learning" Teachers report GenAI as a time-saver and an enhancer of teaching effectiveness, with benefits also extending to student engagement and inclusivity. One high school principal said "Massive positive impacts already. It marked coursework that would typically take 8-13 hours in 30 minutes (and gave feedback to students). " Predominant uses include automating marking, providing feedback, and supporting students with special needs and English as an additional language. The goal for more teachers is to free up more time for high-impact instruction. Respondents reported five broad challenges that they had experienced in adopting GenAI: • User knowledge and skills - this was the major thing - people feeling the need for more help to use GenAI effectively • Performance of tools - including making stuff up • Workplace awareness and attitudes • Data protection adherence • Managing student use • Access However, the report also highlight common worries - mainly around AI's tendency to generate false or unreliable information. For History, English and language teachers especially, this could be problematic when AI is used for assessment and grading There are three case studies at the end of the report - a college using it for online formative assessment with real-time feedback; a high school using it for creating differentiated lesson resources; and a group of 57 schools using it in their learning management system. The Technology in Schools survey The UK government also did The Technology in Schools survey which gives them information about how schools in England specifically are set up for using technology and will help them make policy to level the playing field on use of tech in education which also brings up equity when using new tech like GenAI. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/technology-in-schools-survey-report-2022-to-2023 This is actually a lot of very technical stuff about computer infrastructure but the interesting table I saw was Figure 2.7, which asked teachers which sources they most valued when choosing which technology to use. And the list, in order of preference was: Other teachers Other schools Research bodies Leading practitioners (the edu-influencers?) Leadership In-house evaluations Social media Education sector publications/websites Network, IT or Business Managers Their Academy Strust My take is that the thing that really matters is what other teachers think - but they don't find out from social media, magazines or websites And only 1 in 5 schools have an evaluation plan for monitoring effectiveness of technology. Australian uni students are warming to ChatGPT. But they want more clarity on how to use it https://theconversation.com/australian-uni-students-are-warming-to-chatgpt-but-they-want-more-clarity-on-how-to-use-it-218429 And in Australia, two researchers - Jemma Skeat from Deakin Uni and Natasha Ziebell from Melbourne Uni published some feedback from surveys of university students and academics, and found in the period June-November this year, 82% of students were using generative AI, with 25% using it in the context of university learning, and 28% using it for assessments. One third of first semester student agreed generative AI would help them learn, but by the time they got to second semester, that had jumped to two thirds There's a real divide that shows up between students and academics. In the first semester 2023, 63% of students said they understood its limitations - like hallucinations and 88% by semester two. But in academics, it was just 14% in semester one, and barely more - 16% - in semester two 22% of students consider using genAI in assessment as cheating now, compared to 72% in the first semester of this year!! But both academics and students wanted clarify on the rules - this is a theme I've seen across lots of research, and heard from students The Semester one report is published here: https://education.unimelb.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/4677040/Generative-AI-research-report-Ziebell-Skeat.pdf Published 20 minutes before we recorded the podcast, so more to come in a future episode: The AI framework for Australian schools was released this morning. https://www.education.gov.au/schooling/announcements/australian-framework-generative-artificial-intelligence-ai-schools The Framework supports all people connected with school education including school leaders, teachers, support staff, service providers, parents, guardians, students and policy makers. The Framework is based on 6 guiding principles: Teaching and Learning Human and Social Wellbeing Transparency Fairness Accountability Privacy, Security and Safety The Framework will be implemented from Term 1 2024. Trials consistent with these 6 guiding principles are already underway across jurisdictions. A key concern for Education Ministers is ensuring the protection of student privacy. As part of implementing the Framework, Ministers have committed $1 million for Education Services Australia to update existing privacy and security principles to ensure students and others using generative AI technology in schools have their privacy and data protected. The Framework was developed by the National AI in Schools Taskforce, with representatives from the Commonwealth, all jurisdictions, school sectors, and all national education agencies - Educational Services Australia (ESA), Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA), Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership (AITSL), and Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO).

Gender affirming surgeries reduce suicide, depression and gender dysphoria among transgender and gender-diverse people who need them. But they cost patients tens of thousands of dollars. In a historic moment for trans rights in Australia, an application has been made to get gender affirming surgeries fully funded under Medicare - and it's estimated 47,000 people could take up the treatment in the first year. On this extra episode of The Briefing, we hear from the experts on the latest developments, and from trans Australians about what it means to them. Melbourne Uni's head of Trans Health Research, Associate Professor Ada Cheung, and University of Southern Queensland psychologist Jaime Swan talk us through the evidence, and we speak to Tay, Ophelia and Stella about their gender affirmation journeys.

‘Dark matter' is a component of the universe that scientists say encompasses 80% of its makeup. It doesn't emit light and is therefore invisible and it cannot be detected by electromagnetic or other means. Scientists say dark matter exists, not because they've encountered it but because it doesn't make sense for the rest of the universe to exist without it. The students of the Master of Journalism at the University of Melbourne were tasked with creating an audio story using the term ‘dark matter' as inspiration. As part of All the Best's annual collaboration with these students we have chosen some of our favorites to share with you. 1 - Psilocybin Amelia investigates Australia's journey into legalising psychedelic assisted therapies, where MDMA and magic mushrooms could be used to treat severe PTSD and depression. Produced by Amelia Costigan 2 - Taboo Our next story focuses on the idea of ‘taboo', a term that has a long history from ancient religious societies. But despite this history are taboos still relevant in contemporary society? Or they just a way for families to maintain control? Produced by Li Guangao 3 - New Parents Post-natal depression and anxiety is a common issue suffered by new parents, but is rarely talked about in the mainstream. Our next story explores the toll this isolating feeling can take on the people bringing new life into the world. Produced by Angelina Maroulis 4 - A Light in Dark Times Our final piece is the story of Sarah Chien. Sarah is an international student from Taiwan who used her creativity and connection to culture to create a light for herself in the darkest of times. Produced by Chung-Yun Hsu Supervising production for these stories were by Sami Shah, Daniel Semo and Mell Chun.

We set out to answer the question, "Will buying things make me happier?" expecting that the answer would, of course, be, “No”. But, to our surprise, this conversation with Bec Mitchell enlightened us to a less black-and-white way to consider materialism. Join us as we delve into the complex realm of materialism and its impact on our happiness. Bec, an international keynote speaker, shares her insights on evidence-based wellbeing and the pursuit of true fulfilment. Discover the primal need for human connection that drives our desire for material possessions and status. We explore the concept of the arrival fallacy and how it challenges our expectations of lasting happiness. Gain a fresh perspective on finding joy in everyday experiences and uncover the transformative power of mindfulness. Tune in and embrace a new perspective on living a meaningful life. Our favourite quotable moments: “In order to gain connection, one of the ways we do that is to try and portray this sense of status and success.” - Bec Mitchell "We're not great at giving ourselves compassion as human beings for some of these qualities that we might consider a bit grotesque." - Bec Mitchell "If you're aware of the fact that gaining these goals is not going to achieve that lasting happiness, you can enjoy the journey a little bit more." - Bec Mitchell "The research shows we can change the way that we view the world and what we value." - Bec Mitchell "Comparing yourself only to yourself is generally the most helpful strategy." - Bec Mitchell Resources: Bec Mitchell Website Email: hello@becmitchell.com Linkedin Bec Mitchell About Bec: Bec Mitchell is an Organisational Wellbeing Specialist.

For the past seven years, All the Best has collaborated with the University of Melbourne's Centre for Advancing Journalism and the Science Gallery to mentor students in my Audio Journalism class and to provide audio editorial training. These produced narrative podcasts that have been used in the Science Gallery's shows and broadcast on All the Best. This collaboration has allowed students to produce work for broadcast for a public audience for the first time. This year's theme is 'Dark Matter' and All The Best mentors are currently working with students on a brand new batch of stories to fit this theme. You can keep an eye out for those in June, but in the meantime here are some of our favourites from previous years. You'll hear the stories as they were first aired, so get keen to hear voices from hosts of All the Bests' past! Grandpa Delivers The Eulogy At His Funeral by Julia Bergin 2017 Three years prior to his death, Grandpa and father began formal discussions for his funeral. Whilst they disagreed over size and music, there was consensus that Grandpa should speak on the day of his departure. In March this year, the funeral planning committee's recommendations took effect; Grandpa addressed the congregation from his casket, delivering the eulogy at his own funeral.

But for Indepreet, growing up in India, cloth pads have always been the norm. Supervising producer: Eugenia Zoubtchenko. Brown and Happy by Dilpreet Kaur 2018 “You have dark skin and a fat nose,” said the 60-year-old neighbour to a 12 year-old girl. A whole decade later, this girl is still fighting the stereotype of being a woman of color and the lack of privilege of not being white. Does she give in? Supervising Producer: Jordan Fennell.
