The article states her paper focused on the dangers of large language models: “Environmental and financial costs,” “Massive data, inscrutable models,” and “Research opportunity costs.”
The dangers of large language models is an interesting topic but it’s not AI research and it doesn’t advance the state of the art of AI.
When it comes to technical substance in the field of AI, her paper is indeed lacking in that unless the article completely failed to mention something that would directly qualify as original AI research.

- CyberRabbi 6y agoThat is a good point. It says her field is “AI ethics,” not “AI.” So I have to admit that her paper was in her field. I also have to say that “AI” is a vastly different area of study than “ethics.” Very strange that Google has these organized in the same hierarchy.
