@glynmoody это те самые экспонаты, что поехали выставляться в Голландию из российского Крыму, были "возвернуты" почему-то на украину, там украдены, проданы чиновниками в Европу, там найдены, и сейчас их снова "вернули".
Ждём, когда украинские чиновники украдут и продадут их в очередной раз.

"I’m still perplexed at what the complaint is here? You don’t need to “consent” for someone to analyze your book. You don’t need to “consent” to someone putting up statistics about their analysis of your book.

But, Zach’s tweet went viral with a bunch of folks ready to blow up anything that smacks of tech bro AI, and lots of authors started yelling at Smith."

I think that anything adjacent to "tech bro harm" is going to be treated as a hostile product. There will be lots of collateral damage.

@glynmoody fear of AI is GOOD. We will NOT embrace bullshit generators. Creation and knowledge are human attributes.

@glynmoody Over on BlueSky, one academic is claiming that he had been incorrectly cited for a non-existent paper in his name, and blamed it on AI.

I looked into it, and within a few minutes discovered that Google Scholar had a citation for the entire journal volume and all the authors in it, rather than individual articles of the journal. He wrote an article in the journal, but the preface of the journal (written by someone else) was being cited. So it's very likely not an error of AI paper generators, but an issue with Google Scholar and/or an editorial oversight in the citation.

But of course everyone commenting there now seems to think the entire paper that had the bad citation was AI generated and that "we are fucked" because the paper with the bad citation was in a reputable journal, so now journals are accepting AI hallucinations.

God, people are so stupidly quick to jump to conclusions.
