This sounds like an excellent idea.

Eliza effect indeed.

@frankfukuyama.bsky.social appears to have befriended with his supportive and well mannered ChatGPT.

So when you say you found fake journals in GS, you mean you found fake journals in the *reference lists* of real journals indexed in GS?

Examples?

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

“If investors continue to price AI companies as if they will capture the economic value of labor rather than the economic value of tools, valuations will outrun reality.”

A must watch - Mokyr's Nobel Prize speech on how ideas matter for progress, where AI fits here, and where bad institutional decisions might harm things. His ageless energy and unlimited memory for history are exactly today as I remember as his student 15 years ago. www.youtube.com/live/jQCkCcu...

Make it Manuscript Central and we’re on!

This is the best thing I’ve seen since I don’t know when.

Center for the Alignment of AI Alignment Centers We align the aligners

Today I’m humbled to announce an epoch-defining event: the launch of the 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀.

”AI-debatten bör bygga på vetenskap – inte på spekulation” SLUTREPLIK. Argumenten vilar primärt på abstrakta, spekulativa tankeexperiment och påminner mer om science fiction än vetenskap, skriver ai-forskare från Chalmers.

Archeologists speak of years Before Present (BP), with ‘present’ set to January 1, 1950—just before nuclear bomb testing significantly changed the atmospheric ratio of carbon isotopes.

Given how AI is rapidly flooding the digital world with bullshit, we may need a similar epoch marker—Jan 1 2025?

Some really interesting ideas about kinds of research and modes of governance/funding.

😅

Wow, thanks!

This is interesting.

This PDW examines the central role of artifacts in processes of development and change across fields and practices including entrepreneurship, innovation, project management, strategy, and future-making. In these and other areas, managerial work often amounts to artifact-centered processes in which final outcomes emerge via various “intermediate artifacts” such as conceptual models, material prototypes, digital simulations, and operational plans. Such artifacts serve diverse functions: as focusing devices that produce shared visions and guide concrete actions, as boundary objects that enable feedback and collaboration across domains, and as unfolding artifacts that are left intentionally incomplete to invite creative engagement. While scholars in different fields are theorizing and investigating artifact-centered practices, there is little discussion across fields. This PDW aims to encourage such dialogue.

Looking forward to this (joint TIM, ENT, SAP, OMT) PDW with Jennifer Whyte, Raghu Garud, and Dimo Dimov at the Academy of Management meeting in Copenhagen.

“Like every writer, he measured the virtues of other writers by their performance, and asked that they measure him by what he conjectured or planned.”
- Jorge Luis Borges

In 1981 NYT published a piece on the then-new citation index, and how it was being used "unintentionally" for performance evaluations

”I argue that today’s AI excels at recognizing structure, but not at reframing it. It doesn't invent abstractions, ask better questions, or propose new ways of seeing. And that distinction—between fitting the world and reimagining it—is what separates tools of discovery from discovery itself.”

Did you read Rumelt’s “Good strategy bad strategy”?

Wow.

Language Models in Plato's Cave Why language models succeeded where video models failed, and what that teaches us about AI

This is an excellent and very clear piece from Sergey Levine about the strengths and limitations of Large Language models.

Almost surely none of this is real. This is multinationals using inflated transfer prices to make profits appear in low-tax Ireland. Trump's EU trade war is stupid on many levels, but the fact that it's based in part on an accounting fiction is the cherry on top
