Me, when my favourite articles haven’t been cited by anyone….

That’s me! Come and listen

Almost in tears, waiting...

I put this up at work 10 months ago. I’m looking forward to taking them down on Tuesday. #bringthemhome

Story today about unis relying on Turnitin to detect AI. My research last year (@ausjpa.bsky.social) where students were required to use ChatGPT to produce policy briefs showed that Turnitin produced a lot of false negatives:

With all of this news of AI slop from Deloitte, it’s worth remembering that in this study, even my undergrads could see how poorly AI produced policy advice @ausjpa.bsky.social

This dual framing is really important, because it also reflects how Jews are both white and not-white; promoters of communism and evil bankers.

Hi hive-mind. I'm looking for info on who owns letters sent by public to Aus MPs in their *legislative* capacity (i.e. excluding ministerial capacity)? My understanding is that they own them in their personal capacity? @auspublawblog.bsky.social @jeremygans.bsky.social

As usually AI search results (from Bing) are really awful! I was hoping to attend the first @jawspolisci.bsky.social seminar, so needed to check the time in Australia. Unfortunately Bing was out by 8hrs?? It 1pm Eastern is 3am in Syd/Canberra.

The best bit of this article is that they need to describe an “own goal” to an American audience

With #Robodebt again back in the news with the release of the SBS series #ThePeoplevsRobodebt being released, here is my paper exploring how the broader Aus Public Service engaged in learning and meaning-making after this public admin crisis.

Given all of the attention around Albo and Trump, have a look at this piece of mine on how Aus MPs deal with Trump - and Zoom in and listen to me talk about it in a few weeks time

Do I (still) know anyone from PoliSci with expertise on contemporary Hungarian 🇭🇺 politics? And who wouldn't mind me bugging them with a couple of questions over email?

If we ever meet in person, I will owe you a beverage of your choice :)

Just giving this package another plug. I think I'm using it (or stuff derived from it) for about 4 different papers at the moment.
We don't give enough credit to the academics developing/maintaining this crucial research infrastructure.

My new piece @E_IR, exploring why ALP MPs are strategically ignoring Trump. Are they caught between being responsive to their electorate and knowing they need to maintain the US alliance?
I draw on canberrainbox.com.au to test this.

So, I've discovered a book on translation has cited a publication of mine... My publication is on "punctuated equilibrium" and its cited in this book in the chapter on punctuation.... I suspect the whole thing is AI written???
@grahamkendall.bsky.social thoughts?

Thanks

Are there other online/virtual ECR seminars like @jawspolisci.bsky.social for polcomm / political parties?
