GU Toxicity, AI Toxicity & Twitter toxicity!!!
from GU Cast | Urology Podcast · host Professor Declan Murphy & Dr Renu Eapen
In case you missed it, or you've already abandoned Twitter (memo to self - must do that ourselves!), we witnessed some pretty toxic stuff over there in the past couple of weeks. Vile personal attacks, calls for resignations, accusations of nefarious behaviour etc etc, mostly triggered by an AI-generated infographic attempting to illustarte a recent paper in European Urology Oncology. We chat with first author Dr Riccardo Bertolo (University of Verona, ITA), about his first-hand experience of twitter toxicity, his take on that terrible infographic, and ,most importantly, we discuss the paper which he and his colleagues published on late GU toxicity following prostate cancer radiation. Your usual hosts are Renu Eapen and Declan Murphy, back with a bang after their summer break.
