Scholars could start new AI journals, where reviews and editorial decisions are made by AI. That replaces most labor. Will other scholars rush to publish there? I am skeptical, but that would be the test case. That still does not resolve the legacy journals that make or break careers.

Different labor components of journal production include managing manuscripts, peer review, editorial decisions, formatting, publicity, plus engaging with peer scientists. AI can help with some of those components, its role would be debated on others, and is not going to replace some.

Interesting possibility, but not really explained. The current model has a labor component, but also a pretty big property component. Publishers own journals in many cases. Professional orgs that own journals might be tempted to go open access but I'd be careful in assuming AI would enable too much.

Bari Weiss reposing a CBS News stories that says the current war with Iran stretches back to 1979
Story at the The Free Press: Our 50 Year War with Iran
Bari Weiss is pushing the β50 year warβ narrative at both the Free Press and CBS. The erases both American culpability for the current war (since Iran started in 1979!) and the reasons why a theocratic anti-American regime took power in the first place.

4. I think that it is important that critics of LLMs get this. The 'LLMs are useless which is terrible and everyone is using them which is also terrible' shtick contained contradictions even in the beginning, which took a lot of work to maintain . Now it contradicts people's lived experiences.

Senior Trump official said Iran in nuclear talks was trying "to get us into a long, drawn-out process with meetings and experts and something that would have taken time in order to do the third meeting." Iran then gave US a longer, five-page proposal. "We joked that even though we were in Switzerland, the proposal was like Swiss cheese, because there were, you know, a lot of holes that they were able to go through."
The Iranians dared to go to the negotiations with a position paper
