Absolutely. When I saw this headline I thought of this gruesome number "90% of students are leaving education"

How? It's behind the paywall.

How useful is AI for academic writing? This question was investigated systematically in this study .
They asked students to write an article with AI and then have them analyze the output.

I can attest the same for me. The trick with AI to use it as a reviewer rather than a Ghostwriter.

Our CEO @gewaltig.bsky.social was recently interviewed by the Authority Magazine, where he discussed what it takes to drive meaningful innovation and challenge the status quo in the area of AI.

How does AI impact academic writing and scholarly integrity?

I had the pleasure of joining The Principal Center podcast to talk about how tools like thesify.ai help students improve their academic writing while staying true to academic integrity.

Last week, I had the pleasure to attend the announcement of this year's winner of the Swiss Global AI Award in Zürich.
This year's winners are the 8 authors of the famous "Attention is all you need" - modern science is done in teams.

Frontiers | Handwriting but not typewriting leads to widespread brain connectivity: a high-density EEG study with implications for the classroom As traditional handwriting is progressively being replaced by digital devices, it is essential to investigate the implications for the human brain.

Remember: taking notes by hand is far superior over typing notes. You will learn more if your writing by hand. www.frontiersin.org/journals/psy...

These instances are a great example of LLM attractors - where you can lure LLMS into non-sensical answers, because you are using vocabulary or imagery that the LLM usually sees in a different context. Similar to the "Man, goat and boat at a river" failure.

Aren't you just descending to the same level?

Feedback for theses, papers and books is coming.
We've just rolled out the first set of new features: separate feedback for each chapter of a thesis or paper.
try it out on thesify.ai

So we announced @thesify.bsky.social on Twitter and the account lost 10% of its followers in a few days. I didn't know BlueSka was so contentions over there :-D

I am all for it.

Here are 14 tips for how to write your PhD thesis faster:

Allen AI is introducing an RAG LLM for scientists. With access to a over 40 million OA papers, it promises to outperform ChatGPT and other generic LLMS on scientific topics.

memories. I had one of those - minus the toaster though

We are currently working on a downloadable feedback report. I was surprised to see that the total length of all thesify.ai rubrics covers 11 full pages.

Excellent. Signed up.

A good outline is half the battle. Map out your main points before you start writing—it saves time and keeps you on track. 🗺️ #WritingTips #StudyHacks

Writing is a journey. Don’t rush the process; give yourself time to explore ideas, draft, and revise. Great papers take patience! ⏳ #WritingWisdom #AcademicAdvice
