#Debate #USpol #KamalaHarris #Trump
The first and maybe only question that should be asked during the Tuesday, September 10, 2024 presidential debate is:
Do you believe that all candidates for POTUS with a #felony conviction in the last 3 years should be disqualified? Why or why not, and explain how your views on this issue have evolved in the past 10 years.
We're so fucked.
"Our analysis of a selection of questionable GPT-fabricated scientific papers found in Google Scholar shows that many are about applied, often controversial topics susceptible to disinformation: the environment, health, and computing. The resulting enhanced potential for malicious manipulation of society’s evidence base, particularly in politically divisive domains, is a growing concern."

Amazing #IceAge Art! 🤩
These ancient animal figurines are some of the oldest known works of figurative art, skilfully carved from mammoth ivory about 40,000 years ago!

Well, a bit late today for my dona-thon contribution but I just made it. The streak continues, a donation a day until debate day!
#MastodonForHarris is at $564,365.98 as of right now. The present goal is $575,000.00, by the end of the debate IIRC.
Can you pitch in? $1, $5, $10, any amount is appreciated. I’ve dropped in a link below that takes you right to the donation page on ActBlue.
Many thanks to @heidilifeldman for taking action and setting this up. 👏👏👏

> All scientific publications and journals should immediately require a declaration from authors that no LLM/AI systems were used in the generation of results or the paper being published
... and convincing evidence of a false declaration ought to be grounds for being banned from publishing, by all credible academic journals. For at least 5 years, if not permanently.

BTW I'm guessing this problem is even worse in China. Where there have long been questionable attitudes towards academic publishing, influenced by decades of the CCP's MiniTru approach to information. Also where training MOLE (Machine Operated Learning Engines) is even more hyped and funded, and less regulated, unless for MiniTru purposes.

"China continues to have problems with research integrity and has the highest number of retractions of any country due to plagiarism, invented data and fake peer review, but is seeking to improve this by removing cash incentives and use of plagiarism software."
