On the Dangers of Large‐Language Model Mediated Learning for Human Capital

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Against the dominant view in HRM concerning the value‐creating use of large language models (LLMs) in relation to Human Capital, our provocation asks whether LLMs will enhance or compromise Human Capital at work in the long‐run. We feel compelled to ask this question because Human Capital represents employees' accumulated learning experiences,

Adapting to Urban Heights: Multidimensional Gradients Drive Nest‐Selection Plasticity and Trade‐Offs in a Human‐Commensal Sparrow

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Urban Eurasian tree sparrows exhibit pronounced nest‐site plasticity, exploiting vertical building space while preferring lower nest heights when sites are abundant. Nest decisions are driven by altitude and building height rather than other factors, indicating a shift toward anthropogenic resources in cities.

A roadmap for capturing user-adaptive facade interaction

, 2017
Adaptive façades are building envelopes that interact with users and vary their performance or properties (controlling thermal or solar energy, air flow and/or daylight) in response to changing external conditions and indoor needs. However, effective adaptive façade solutions that provide an optimal balance between user comfort, satisfaction and energy
