The ACM Digital Library, where a LOT of computing-related research is published (I'd say at least 75% of my own publications), is now not only providing (without consent of the authors and without opt-in by readers) AI-generated summaries of papers, but they appear as the *default* over abstracts.

Screenshot from the second paper that shows the title and abstract. In this work, we examine the impact of a TikTok ban in Nepal that was subsequently lifted.
The second paper, "Regulating Social Media: Surveying the Impact of Nepali Government's TikTok Ban" (dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1...) examines the impact of an earlier TikTok ban in Nepal. Recent events show how critical collective governance is, and we offer insights to move towards community governance

Feeling a bit of FOMO for not being in Bergen π³π΄ this week, but so proud that our work will be part of #CSCW2025.
We have two papers this year. They engage with difficult questions about collaboration, care, and governance in socio-technical systems.
