Like every year around PhD decision time, here is a PhD syllabus I wrote to demystify and clarify what to expect from the PhD for students in my lab. It may be helpful for others making their decisions: it's not the same everywhere, but can tell you what q's to ask. s.tech.cornell.edu/phd-syllabus/

Summary: a (rather simple) AI bot can not only successfully evade survey-level protections, it can also mimic personas accurately across questions, parse photos/videos, and infer the researcher’s hypotheses to produce data that confirms them. The official paper link: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
