#ica26 submission rejected, but I'm still coming to co-lead the @icacat.bsky.social doctoral consortium! Just booked my flight. Who else is arriving Tuesday night (June 2)? Trying to figure out airport-hotel transportation options.

(It used to be 3 reviews/submission, but as an associate editor now I have to account for manuscripts I have to handle there too.)

Me, having wrapped up the rest of my reviews due this year: OK, no more reviews! I'm already over my fair share.*

Journal editor: This is so relevant to your current work and they cite you and you're my top choice for a reviewer.

Me: Ok, fine. You got me πŸ˜…

Yeah, I can see that. And/or a "I admitted to some use of it, so I can get away with more." Not that I can prove that of course, though I did just review another article with a GenAI statement, that I suspected was entirely AI-generated with only light human editing...

Today I reviewed my first manuscript with a GenAI declaration. I'm sure other articles I've reviewed used GenAI, but not with official statements. I know this is the path forward in declaring AI work, but it's also leaving me curious where the human/AI line is in this writing, and where it matters.

Nothing makes me want to use a product (e.g., Stukent) less than receiving multiple unsolicited emails to set up a time to chat, including one that just let me know they have been trying to call me to talk about their product.

Anyone trying to look up United flights for #ica26 using the ICA discount code? (www.icahdq.org/mpage/ICA26-...). I keep getting an error that my selected dates (5/31-6/9) are not within the allotted time (5/31-6/9...). @icahdq.bsky.social?

Now that your #ICA26 submissions are in, what do you do with them? JMP is always looking for submissions that advance our understanding of "how human beings select, use, and experience various media..and...can affect their cognitions, emotions, and behaviors."

I'm looking forward to presenting my research on platform migration later today at #AoIR2025. I'm also thankful for their remote option, because as much as I'd like to be in Brazil right now, I have zero travel funds left πŸ˜…
