@koen_hufkens je haalt me de woorden uit de mond
Zoals ik elders schreef: "A common argument for Generative AI is a promise of higher productivity. Yet productivity does not equal insight, and when kept unchecked it may hinder innovation and creativity. We do not need more papers, faster; we rather need more thoughtful, deep work, also known as slow science." osf.io/preprints/osf/2c48n
![A key ethical challenge is that most current Generative AI undermines these virtues by design [3–5; details below]. Input data is legally questionable; output reproduces biases and erases authorship; fine-tuning involves exploitation; access is gated; versioning is opaque; and use taxes the environment. While most of these issues apply across societal spheres, there is something especially pernicious about text generators in academia, where writing is not merely an output format but a means of thinking, crediting, arguing, and structuring thoughts. Hollowing out these skills carries foundational risks. A common argument for Generative AI is a promise of higher productivity [5]. Yet productivity does not equal insight, and when kept unchecked it may hinder innovation and creativity [6, 7].

Yesterday our newsletter was sent out, also available through pronuntio.utwente.nl/2-1gxo_sa…
One of the items: though still involved with OSCT, Ruud (@steltenpower )
passed his coordinatorship to Renske (openscience-twente.com/communi… ),
Management of our social media presence is also (in the process of) being handed over.
If you post any news that you feel would fit our channel, 'cc' us to make it more likely we'll boost.
It's a community after all.
Then you wonder why there are so many PEFPs in US political sphere...
Their hypocrisy and the public's acceptance that agents of a foreign nation have such a strong grip over American politics is just hard to understand.
But it will s what it is 2/3rd of all people in high positions in US are funded and supported by #AIPAC.

"Rob Wilkins says, “For so long, Terry worked against a backdrop of snobbery uniquely targeted at genre writers, it’s heartening to see him once again recognised as the great wordsmith, commentator and thinker that he was.”
Orwell, Woolf et al., make some room for the 🐐!
I keep thinking about the part in Kim Stanley Robinson's "Ministry for the Future" where an eco-terrorist group starts shooting down private jets
