There is your societal age, your biological age, and then there is your academic age. Society: "You are old and experienced enough to be a prime minister." Your doctor: "Why did you wait so long? This is geriatric!" Other academics: "You’re just a baby. You need to wait." #academicsky

What does it take to be an intellectually responsible scientist in the age of AI? I propose an epistemological framework grounded in intellectual virtues, such as curiosity and intellectual scrutiny, to guide the use of AI in science. In highly recommended Episteme! www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
