Tämä ei ole hyvän mielen postaus, mutta ehkä syksyn tärkein postaukseni. Suosittelen kaikille tutkijoille ja tutkimusryhmille: käsitelkää törkyriskejä ja suunnitelkaa toimenpiteitä etukäteen yhdessä.
Lähiaikoina on tiettävästi odotettavissa törkyä tiedeyhteisöä kohtaan. Ketjusta muutama pikavinkki.

Headline 'The Country with Europe's Most Radical Climate Plan: An interview with Petteri Orpo, prime minister of Finland'
Absolutely wild to me that this guy gets a heroic feature in the NY Times when his clearly articulated climate policy throughout has been "let's not do a single thing to reach the previous government's climate targets but just keep them on the books anyway to point at in case anyone asks".

Welcome to our panel discussion on pseudoscience in working life. Among other things, we will talk about how the University of Helsinki last year ended up using questionable competency and personality tests in the the application process for salaried PhD positions.

No, I don't think it's a user error. ChatGPT is advertised in a very misleading way. But the Deep Research mode can actually be useful.

A long response by ChatGPT, suggesting Knight & Ackerly (2003) and Ackerly & Bazzaz (1995).
I asked for publication where David Ackerly wrote about plasticity in leaf traits. This is what ChatGPT in Deep Research mode suggested.

You should use Deep Research mode if you want to search literature with it. It'll give you links to the papers it finds. (Obviously the summaries can't be trusted, but the links are fine. It's pretty much like Scopus AI, Web of Science Research Assistant, and other similar tools.)

How many times did Israel deny doing this? And how many times did politicians, journalists and pundits online suggest that saying that Israel was doing anything other than the most "moral warfare" was rank antisemitism?

I just reviewed an obviously AI-generated manuscript. Dear editors, these are not difficult to identify. Please spare your reviewers. We are already overworked, and if you send us AI-bullshit, we are forced to spend time explaining why the paper should be rejected. You could simply desk reject it.

Dear all,
Helen passed away at 13:21 local time. Helen would not have wanted us to be sad for a long time. All they wanted was to be remembered. They looked forward to being rid of pain and to being at rest. Helen took great comfort in you, their friends and readers.

Etenkin tuo jälkimmäinen kuulostaa todella kiinnostavalta! Ja hämmästyttävää, ettei ole tutkittu.

Miksei tätä ole tutkittu?
Tieteessä tapahtuu -lehti kokoaa yhteen eri tieteenalat. Se on foorumi ajankohtaisille ja yleistajuisille tiedeartikkeleille sekä keskustelulle tieteestä ja tiedepolitiikasta.
Kirjoitin taas kolumnin. Toimittaja Taina Vuokko keksi, että tässähän pitää luoda aihetunniste #mikseitätäoletutkittu .(Oikeasti vain edelleen haluan, että joku osaava yhteiskuntatieteilijä kiinnostuu noista aiheista.) www.tieteessatapahtuu.fi/numerot/3-20...

I am currently chairing a network very close to my heart, namely the Eastern European Network for Philosophy of Science. It finally has an account here @eenphilsci.bsky.social. To start here's a moving piece by a Bulgarian philosopher and a founding member Lilia Gurova on how it all began.

"We'll just terraform Mars," they insist, unable to terraform Earth, a planet that is already perfect except it's like 2° too warm.
