People who want to ban abortion want to ban it everywhere, full-stop — flowered words about 'leaving abortion to the states' notwithstanding.

Corporations have learned you can post $10B in profit & $50M bonuses for your executives & **maybe** someday, years down the road after the lawyers have fought it out in court, the corporation (not the execs) will pay a $1M fine Dems should campaign on throwing corporate crooks in the slammer

We rightly give Home Office ministers a hard time here for many things, but in their defence, not one of them has ever ordered the Identity & Passport Service to mail out passports in envelopes that might as well be printed with the words ‘Important identity document enclosed: please steal’.

Trump's Iran War has spiked food prices by raising the cost of fertilizer and fuel. His cuts to FDA and HHS have made foodborne illness outbreaks harder to contain. And his SNAP cuts have made it even harder for millions to feed themselves. He's making America hungry again.

I do think they probably ran his texts through an LLM and it hallucinated crimes. That’s scary and bad and it’s funny they got caught, but imagine how many other times this happens on a day to day basis against people with no rights, let alone the ability to publicly humiliate the AI prosecutor.

Y'know, sometimes you want to have one conversation, but the meta state of things forces another conversation. Fine, that's gonna happen, but... it's pretty unfair to assume I'm up to speed on everything that has happened in the last 24 hours at all times. And that's before we get to merit.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, the media, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's Fascism 101.

Not only are researchers facing AI-created review by chatbots, they're wondering if they should report it or just go with the flow? Humans can be very unreasonable on review if they have an axe to grind-- plus it can be very challenging to find reviewers, so reporting = further delays. 🧪

Luke Allen
Health policy advisor and co-director

Second time I've received AI peer reviews from a Q1 journal 🤖📝

In both cases, 2/3 reviews were very obviously pasted chatbot content. Do editors not realise? Or not care?

Apart from the fact that they tend to be exhaustingly and exhaustively lengthy, the real problem is that chatbot reviews are generally more reasonable than the average reviewer 3.

There's a disincentive to report back to the journal because it will take them another six months to find new reviewers, and then you're rolling the dice on how reasonable they will be.

Better the silicon-based devil you know?

The compounding irony is that the AI comments are so lenghty that I now increasingly use a chatbot to generate my response to reviewer document. And of course it merrily suggests that it could take a stab at some of the simple grammar/formatting issues.

How long until scientific publishing is just papers written by AI, being reviewed by AI, and revised by AI?
