'to treat peer review as a throughput problem is to misunderstand what is at stake. Review is not simply a production stage in the research pipeline; it is one of the few remaining spaces where the scientific community talks to itself.' 1/3

AI is not a peer, so it can’t do peer review
If we still believe that science is a vocation grounded in argument, curiosity and care, we can’t delegate judgement to machines, says Akhil Bhardwaj

Finally some scholarship on what we've all been watching unfold. But I would use a word other than junkification, borrowed from Doctorow.

Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading. Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own. Just. Keep. Reading.

THIS is what’s happening in Gaza: - Destroying homes - Cutting off aid - Taking children’s lives - Starving an entire population Yet in Europe, Israel is still welcomed to play football, as if nothing is happening. Italy and other countries are preparing to host them for the World Cup qualifiers.

Academics are under unrelenting pressure to accept the narrative of the inevitability of
#generativeAI
& to embrace it in teaching & learning. We resist - because it is ecologically destructive, ethically corrupt, & because it undermines the thinking abilities that make us both human & intelligent.
