Academia is in trouble.Many fields(ha!) of study
are no longer proffesional, ie: self governing and
self regulating in an open, coherant fashion. Cosmology is dead by the hand of webb. Unearned tenure is rampant. And behind the scenes, the corpretisation of acedemic publishing is squirming in there seats, whining about putting adds into scientific papers.Then there is the weaponisation
of intelectual property threatening the very idea
of scientific publishing, sure to be rolled out for federaly funded university research, to protect those poor egg heads who just dont understand how there nobel work can be stolen and turned against them and the rest of our hard working people, and of course the new model, will give them a portion of the add revenue, giving them greater accedemic freedom, "sciffi" anyone?
- floren 2y agoAt least nobody can accuse you of writing/editing your comments with an LLM.
- metalman 2y agoHa ha ha , no chance of that. which is worth the speculation that LLM's are built on everything, including off the cuff ramblings like mine, and worse, much worse......and of course LLM's are feeding back on themselves. To defend myself, while my spelling, and punctuation, are , are, are, spontainious, ha!, and often creative one of's, I do attempt to be strict on my own fact checking and try to stick to things that are verifiable useing first principals and generaly accepted practices.And this practice is whats missing from academia(adademonia, academonics), and the willingness to fail, playing to loose if you will.
