The paper lists "first authors", "core authors", and "senior authors". My dream is to one day be listed on a seminal paper as "secondary forum reply author".

- verticalscaler 3y agoHoly inferiority complex batman! You can aspire higher and just use one of these LLMs to be a "first author" in a published peer reviewed paper.
- peddling-brink 3y agoSimilarly, I’d like the movie credit Second Assistant to the Second Second Assistant Director.
- Turing_Machine 3y ago"Junior Assistant Vice-Dean" (or variants thereof) in academia. Those mostly exist to give a pay boost to administrators who've otherwise maxed out on pay. I recall that my undergrad institution once invented a new deanship out of whole cloth for a coach who'd maxed out on the "professor" pay scale. Even worse, the bastard didn't even win games!
- smokel 3y agoIn that case, I highly recommend watching the movie Synecdoche New York (2008). PS Can I be your hairdresser?
- aspenmayer 3y agoI'll second that recommendation, and in that same sort of vibe I'd also recommend Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014) and Station Eleven (2021-2022). They all have aspects of stories within stories, which is a trope that I particularly enjoy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Story_within_a_story https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Story_within_a_story

- jebarker 3y agoSpeaking as someone working in the field, I find it amusing how much researchers working on automating human work care about human credit assignment.
