As common-sensical as this might seem on the surface, I think it's mistaken and I am sad that research l/ship does not seem able/willing to question it Short thread

Never attribute to stupidity that which is also explained by malice (because it will depress you).

My membership of the Lumpenprofessoriat got more bearable after this Luhmann (Zettelkasten guy) quote: “Research plan: theory of modern society. Duration: 30 years. No costs.” If your field allows it (big if, but mine does) you can do ambitious research without (needing to beg for) massive funding.

I cannot tell you how absolutely infuriatingly this stuff comes across to Europeans. When we say America is no longer a reliable ally, it goes considerably deeper than Donald Trump himself. This kind of complacent, condescending shit is a *huge* part of it.

I've never been more insulted than when a reviewer turned in a blatantly llm-generated report and the editor acted as if this was completely normal. We used to joke that our readership was at least not smaller than the number of reviewers, now we're no longer sure about even that!

See me personally I think having a machine that I can instruct on computational tasks that it executes exactly as specified is amazing. Having it access databases on other machines is incredible. I don't need it to also expend resources to talk like a human and be wrong more often.
