Typical of them.
Will wait for a sale.

No Thanks, la app para boicotear las empresas que financian y apoyan a Israel

As much as I'm generally in favor of blaming AI for things, the explosion of fake studies is not, at its root, an AI problem. It's the very natural result of the ridiculously profitable and predatory scientific publishing industry (more profitable, according to one study, than drug dealing) doing exactly zero work in exchange for the money it charges on both ends of the process.
The party most responsible for Wiley publishing fake papers is Wiley. Let them burn.

If you wanted to check out my talk "Religious Belief and Practice in the Age of 'AI'" at the Pitts Theology Library at Emory University's Candler School of Theology but were unable to attend at the time of, it's now been published online.
This was such an amazing conversation, and the audience provided some really wonderful questions to think through and with. I'm so thankful to have gotten this opportunity and such a receptive and engaged audience for a topic I've always thought was crucial, and which I think will only be more important in the coming years:
Seriously engaging with tools and concepts from comparative religious studies, mythology, ritual studies, and the occult to help elucidate both major contextual cues about a LARGE swathe of past and present-day "AI" and tech culture, and also potential insights for how to both react to and shape those contexts.
I hope you enjoy it:

A reminder that the rot and depravity in the GOP started long ago.

June 20, 1979 - President Carter dedicated the solar-thermal panels on the roof of the White House.
“A generation from now, this solar heater can either be a curiosity, a museum piece, an example of a road not taken, or it can be a small part of one of the greatest and most exciting adventures ever undertaken by the American people.”
Carter presented an ambitious plan to put America on a path to 20% of energy from renewable sources by 2000.
Then came Reagan 🙁
