Green Text on black ground. The letter "e" is missing. R s arch and ducation? Som cuts just donยดt mak s ns .

From June 23 to June 29, 2025, Freie Universitรคt Berlin will be cutting out the letter e from its communication.
Why? Because the university itself is facing cuts: around 37 million euros this year alone. Additional cuts are also planned for 2026 and 2027. (1/3)

New working paper! @i4replication.bsky.social does a good job detailing the experimentโ€™s results, so for anyone who considers LLMs/AI as a (soon-to-be) solution to reproducibility in social science, let me walk you through the ๐Ÿ”ฅhell๐Ÿ”ฅ of trying to reproduce a paper on an "AI-led" team. 1/7
