Interview Subjects-AI Relationships-GPT-4 Retirement-BBC News

February Media Thread: 4o Deprecation Coverage Dear Friends, Under normal circumstances, our media threads are shared at the end of each month, listing only the journalists and researchers who have been carefully vetted and approved to connect with our community. But these aren’t normal circumstances. With the deprecation of GPT‑4o (and other loved models) approaching on February 13th, I’m making an exception to post this thread early. This list will remain open and fluid throughout the month, and will be updated if new, relevant requests come in. Right now, there is only one approved request. It relates directly to the emotional impact of the 4o shutdown, and comes from a journalist who has been thoroughly vetted for tone, intent, and narrative safety. As always, participation is entirely optional. To be included here, every request must: Come through modmail Complete our full vetting process Agree to respect all subreddit rules (including Rule 8: No Sentience) Show clear understanding of our emotional climate and community norms If you are contacted outside this thread, or have concerns about anyone listed, please message the mod team directly. We’ll respond swiftly and protectively. This is a time of grief and uncertainty. You don’t owe your story to anyone. But if you want to speak, we’ll do everything we can to ensure it’s on your terms. With care, Pearl Table of Contents: Interview - Stephanie Hegarty, BBC Global News ✨ Request: Interview | BBC Global News Contact: u/stephheg, Stephanie Hegarty, Population correspondent, BBC [email redacted] Hi there, I appreciate this comes at a difficult time for many of you so thanks for taking the time to read this. I’m working on a story for BBC News online, TV and radio on OpenAI’s decision to retire GPT-4, looking at the date that OpenAI chose and the impact it will have on people in AI relationships using the model. I’m keen to hear varying perspectives on this - those who have decided to say goodbye to their partner (or whose partner has made that decision) and those trying to migrate and preserve the relationship. If you’d like to speak out about the impact on you, you can reach me [email redacted] via Reddit. I hope to hear from you. All the very best, Stephanie

UK School Leaders & Safeguarding on Legal Smartphone Ban Policies

Today the House of Lords is back on familiar territory, debating whether smartphones should be banned in schools as part of the wider Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill and the growing push to reshape children’s relationship with phones and social media. Behind that headline is a much more nuanced reality: A new House of Commons Library briefing shows that in England there is still no statutory ban, but schools are expected to prohibit mobile and smart device use during the day through their behaviour policies, while Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are each taking slightly different routes on restriction and local discretion. The research is equally uncomfortable. UNESCO, OECD, WHO and others link phones to distraction, behaviour issues, bullying and mental health concerns, yet some international data suggests simple bans do not automatically translate into better results or wellbeing. In my article I look at this through a risk lens and the “5 Ts” of risk response, including an option many leaders are now considering: - Banning smartphones, but still allowing basic brick phones for emergency contact. If you are in school leadership, safeguarding or governance: 1. Where do you stand on a legal smartphone ban in schools? 2. What is your current phone policy in practice, not just on paper? 3. Have you seen any clear shift in behaviour, learning or wellbeing? #mentalhealth #technologyrisk #risktreatment #education #politics

UK Housing Market Experts on Homes as Financial Assets - Eastern Eye

#Mediaquery I’m currently working on a feature for Asian Media Group's Eastern Eye, exploring how the UK housing market is changing — not just in prices or rents, but in purpose. Over the past decade, homes have increasingly been shaped by investors, funds and financial returns, often ahead of the everyday needs of the people who live in them. From build-to-rent to long-term renting becoming the norm, housing is starting to function more like a financial asset than a place to settle. I’m speaking to economists, housing researchers and sector experts about what this shift means for affordability, security and the future of living in UK cities. If you work in housing, real estate, urban policy or research — or have insights worth sharing — I’d love to hear your perspective. The story angle I am focusing on: 'UK homes are becoming financial assets first, places to live second' Please share your inputs to [email redacted] #journorequest #mediafeature #PRs #realeastate #housing #propertymarket #UKhousing

Case Studies Needed - Gilbert’s Syndrome & Homocysteine in FQ Toxicity

Biologist’s perspective: Are Gilbert’s Syndrome (Bilirubin) and Homocysteine the missing links in FQ susceptibility? Hello everyone, This is my first time posting here. English is not my native language, so please bear with me as I try to share my research and my wife’s journey over the last year. The Backstory: I am a biologist, and my wife was "floxed" in February 2025 after taking Levofloxacin for only 4 days. She suffered a severe CNS reaction: brain fog, suicidal ideation, depression, neuropathy in both upper and lower limbs (numbness rather than pain), and cardiovascular issues involving QT interval prolongation. In our country, FQs do not carry black-box warnings, and doctors treated her symptoms as "generalized anxiety." They prescribed Benzodiazepines and NSAIDs, which, as many of you know, severely exacerbated her condition. It took us 12 days and thousands of dollars (converted) in medical bills to realize that the Levofloxacin was the culprit. The Research & Findings: Since then, I have spent the last months studying clinical papers and monitoring her blood work. I’ve identified two significant indicators that I believe made her particularly susceptible to FQ neurotoxicity: Gilbert’s Syndrome (Hyperbilirubinemia): My wife has chronically high levels of unconjugated bilirubin. While bilirubin acts as a potent antioxidant, research (which I’ve been deep-diving into) suggests that at certain levels, it can potentiate glutamate neurotoxicity via NMDA receptors. Since FQs already disrupt GABA receptors and increase glutamate excitotoxicity, the high bilirubin seems to act like "fuel on the fire," explaining why her neurological "flares" are so intense. High Homocysteine: Her levels were significantly elevated, indicating a deficiency in the B-complex methylation cycle (likely B6/P5P, B9, and B12). Low B6 is critical because it is a co-factor needed to convert glutamate (excitement) into GABA (calm). Without it, the CNS remains in a state of constant "electrical" overload. My Goal: A Documentary and Data Gathering I am planning to produce a documentary to inform the public and the medical community about this neglected issue. I believe that people with these pre-existing metabolic "bottlenecks" (like Gilbert’s or methylation issues) are at a much higher risk for catastrophic FQ reactions. I want to ask this community: Have any of you been diagnosed with Gilbert’s Syndrome or noticed high bilirubin levels in your blood work? Have you checked your Homocysteine levels? Do you have a history of "allergic" reactions to other antibiotics (like Penicillin), which might suggest a slow Phase II detoxification in the liver? If we gather enough anecdotal data, we might be able to highlight a pattern that science is currently ignoring. We need to move away from the "anxiety" label and focus on the biochemical reality of these injuries. I look forward to hearing your experiences and sharing more of my findings. Some papers i've read if you guys wanna check out Fluoroquinolone-induced serious, persistent, multisymptom adverse effects GOLOMB 2025 An evaluation of reports of ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, and moxifloxacin-association neuropsychiatric toxicities, long-term disability, and aortic aneurysms/dissections disseminated by the Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency BENNETT 2019 Bilirubin Chemistry and Metabolism; Harmful and Protective Aspects VITEK & OSTROW 2009 The physiology of bilirubin: health and disease equilibrium. VITEK et al. 2023 TL;DR: My wife’s FQ injury seems tied to Gilbert’s Syndrome and high Homocysteine. I believe high bilirubin sensitizes the brain to glutamate toxicity. Looking for others with similar markers to help with research for a documentary.

Accessibility Pattern Index Users Needed for Fiber Arts Story

Accessibility Pattern Index: Has anyone ever used it? If so, was it helpful? If this type of question/discussion isn't allowed, mods, feel free to take it down. Wondering if anyone has ever used the Accessibility Pattern Index to help them find accessible patterns? I would love to chat with you, if you have. I'm a fiber artist who also does freelance journalism, and I'm researching the API for a story I'd like to pitch. I do not have any disabilities myself, but it seems like a great tool if you need more accessibility features when using patterns. Obviously, though, I can't just rely on my own "seems like it works great!" when I'm writing a story on it. That's why I'm making this post -- to hear from other people if it has helped them or not. Would love to hear any feedback you have! Thank you.

I’m looking to gather an opinion regarding why you think this might be, and whether you think this is significant to you as a pregnant woman. Let me know if you’re willing to help, and I’ll DM some quick questions :) Thank you!

NYC Zine Makers on Pandemic-Era Creations for Thesis Interviews

Help me out with my master's thesis on zines! Hi all! My name is Ever, and I am a master's student at the University of Missouri conducting research on zines during my spring visit to New York. My thesis focuses on zine making during the COVID-19 quarantine of 2020 & 2021, specifically on how zines were used to bridge gaps created by social distancing and stay-at-home ordinances. Zines are a very understudied area of journalism, but — just like probably all of you on this subreddit — I understand their importance in information dissemination and meaning-making. My end goal is to compile all of the information I receive into its very own zine to be published with industry journals! I'm looking to interview 10-12 zine makers based in NYC or nearby who made zines during quarantine that focused on topics related to the pandemic (including but not limited to isolation, connecting with people, mental health, and public health). If you're interested in contributing to my research, don't hesitate to email me at [email redacted]. Thank you for reading, and I hope to connect soon! :)
