No em-dashes any more 🥹
Small-but-happy win: If you tell ChatGPT not to use em-dashes in your custom instructions, it finally does what it's supposed to do!
Are we entering a black mirror episode where papers are written and reviewed by LLMs, and people go to conferences as avatars with earpieces, with LLM guided interaction?
I actually don’t mind the hyper-competitive nature of research - it motivates me and pushes me to do better work. Competition isn’t the problem. The problem is when hard work and talent don’t matter because a merit-based system has been replaced by performative signaling and…
It is less of a trap, but the structural issues are still there. Reminds me of how cutthroat the US academic scene is in terms of what people have told me.

Everyone saying AI is going to replace people clearly don’t work with great people enough
organizers will be like, "please welcome our diverse panelists" and it will be three dudes named Steve and one dude not named Steve
"The past is a different country": if you tried to socialize with one of your ancestors, assuming you managed to bridge the linguistic & body language gap, you would keep talking past one another & found each other severely offensive. You be left feeling you have nothing in…
Ahahahahhaha.
