Couple of quick and crude tests of Google's new Deep Review service (research.google/deepreview/). Mixed results. Details in the article: linkedin.com/pulse/quick-tes…
A few thoughts on the gaps in scholarly metadata from the 1990s and 2000s, and how they got there. Daniel Hook’s work made me wonder whether we can now do a better job of finding and fixing them with AI: linkedin.com/pulse/reflectio…

A 52m student block is planned beside Bethnal Green Gardens.
11 storeys. 520 student rooms. Right by the gardens.
We’ve put together a simple guide explaining what’s proposed and how to object:

Please share.

Playing around with #polymarkets
In 2025, how many academic publishers will publicly state that their referral traffic from Google or Google Scholar has deceased because of a switch to other #AI services?

Great blog post by David Worlock: davidworlock.com/2024/10/ai-….. Time for academic societies to take back ownership of parts of the publishing space to directly serve the needs of their researchers? Time to #partylikeits1999 & value community needs more than efficiency? 😉
Co-intelligence/Co-pilot has been an excellent price of marketing but require work from the user. It seems inevitable (to me) that as more products are built on top of LLMs the more these products will do and the less control used will have. Ethan Mollick’s latest newsletter:
Key takeaways from the FT Strategies session on GenAI trends. 1. Multimodal products, 2. Conversational experiences, 3. Agents. Fascinating session especially the brief insight into their #AI experimentation space. #FutureMediaTechConference
Does anyone else find browsing other people’s backlogs strangely compelling ? Here’s a part of the FT’s #AI ideas backlog. #FutureMediaTechConference
