Overview of DiverCity and global patterns in urban road networks. (a) Example of a trip with low DiverCity (2.18) in Mumbai. Near-shortest routes significantly overlap, leading to low route diversity. (b) Example of a trip with high DiverCity (9) in Tokyo, characterized by multiple spatially diverse near-shortest routes. For panels (a) and (b), inset bar plots show the travel time of each alternative route, with NSRs in blue and non-feasible routes (exceeding the near-shortest threshold, shown as a dashed line) in red.

Agreed! Here’s who I could find:

The A.I.-Profits Drought and the Lessons of History Like the steam engine, electricity, and computers, generative artificial intelligence could take longer than expected to transform the economy.

An M.I.T. study found that 95% of companies that had invested in A.I. tools were seeing zero return. It jibes with the emerging idea that generative A.I., “in its current incarnation, simply isn’t all it’s been cracked up to be,” johncassidysays.bsky.social writes.

Today, our article "The entities enabling scientific fraud at scale are large, resilient, and growing rapidly" is finally published in PNAS. I hope that it proves to be a wake-up-call for the whole scientific community.
