I think it could actually work here - AI writing bullshits in a specific shallow way that is still possible to spot and if you as an author are fooled by it, you deserve the ERC ban that is coming to you .))

blinded psychoactive substance study is an oxymoron (unless the dose is really micro), but since placebo effects are likely not real carcinisation.com/2024/11/13/a... this might be possible to overcome by using better measures and longer follow-up periods..?

yeah, that is pretty harsh, I somehow thought only getting a C score leads to resubmission restriction... but being banned for two years for not getting an A?

Čeká nás světová válka?
Čeká nás světová válka? YouTube video by Voxpot

Vřele doporučuju začít chodit na akce Voxpotu.

Je to tak něco na půli cesty mezi geopolitickou nalejvárnou a skupinovou terapií.

A rozhodně si dejte aspoň takhle ze záznamu velice pozitivní a nedepresivní debatu o zániku světového řádu s Pavlem Baršou...

Psychologists unhappy with the American Psychological Association split off and created to Association for Psychological Science in 1988 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associa... This was very healthy for our discipline. Seems to me a similar split would be healthy for Sociology as well. @philipncohen.com

sadly, headlines are routinely generated (and even A/B tested) for engagement, often with complete disregad for the content of the article... I believe it should be considered unethical by any self-respecting journalist, but everyone just seems to accept it

I had no idea the MFT x dyadic morality debate is actually so toxic; just from reading the papers it seemed like a healthy scientific exchange... also I never felt MFT is so universally accepted as "the" paradigm...

nah, I am sure it just requires a correct mindset... what about trying to think about balloons really hard beforehand?

What do silent disco 💃🕺 and peer review 🧐 have in common? Both were featured at the Open Science Retreat in Schoorl! I wrote a blog about my experiences - and argue that community building through silent disco and washing dishes is how we will save science.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress beforehand, or our allies, or coherently explain to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

I guess the leas authors wouldn't need to divide contributions for this purpose - in a similar way they don't do that for their other papers with less excessive number of co-authors...

New report from us: Can you prompt inject your way to an “A”?

As LLMs increasingly are used as judges, people are inserting AI prompts into letters, CVs & papers. We tested whether it works. It does on older & smaller models, but not on most new frontier AI: gail.wharton.upenn.edu/research-and...
