"Certainly, here is" is the new "As an AI language model". I don't think that LLMs are killing scientific publishing, they are illustrating to which degree scientific publishing is already dead.

Society journals are exquisitely positioned to dramatically reshape scientific publishing. They already have community buy in and already provide strong subject matter expertise without generating artificial scarcity via excessive gatekeeping. In the age of preprints and AI, it is THE time to reimagine peer review for tomorrow — to accelerate science and its reach. Whoever takes this job has an awesome opportunity to lead the way and shape a model others want to emulate. Can’t wait to see who takes up the challenge!

The fate of AI (and the world) should not hinge on one man and his quarrels with his board over a company that he positionined to enjoy regulatory capture of the most powerful government in the world, and is now eyeing vertical integration across the AI hardware stack.
Sam Altman is turning every local game into a SV web2 global game (AI, identity, hardware) which only an oligopoly can win at best, or one wins at worst.
Web3 seeks to decentralize power into plurality of many games across a network of cooperation, pushing power down, not centralizing it at the top.
Technological growth and acceleration is not at odds with decentralization, but depends on it for resilience, security, robustness, risk minimization, and alignment.
Plurality > Singularity
Decentralization > Centralization
Many > One

Original study, positive result.
N=101; cited 563 times (20 times in 2023 post retraction)
Replication study, null result.
N=3,232,430; cited 47 times (4 times in 2023)
A replication 3000x more powerful is <1x as influential.
The scale of this academic fraud is outrageous - two trials in one paper! It also had very real-world impacts. We replicated these findings in a large trial with the Guatemalan Tax Authority doi.org/10.3390/bs7020028 which produced a (v. precisely estimated) null effect.

When @scite introduced a metric measuring contrasting vs. supporting citations on papers, it was not well received. They had to limit it to the journal & institution level.
Listen to the full episode with @joshmnicholson wherever you get your podcasts.

We couldn't be more excited to publish @pujaohlhaver’s "Communication, Consensus, & Power: Decentralization in the Age of Generative Foundation Models (GFMs).✨
Think of it as a crash course in plural AI alignment & decentralization.🖖

This is a “huge if true” study that needs to to be followed by replication efforts. Another reason why we need better mechanism design for the scientific record.

Shoutout to @catia_fortunato for spreading the word of DeSci and Node Stewards in London!
Fantastic talk by @Catia_fortunato followed by lengthy & lively discussion!
Many thanks to Catia and @DeSciLabs for sponsoring

new research from OpenAI used gpt4 to label all 307,200 neurons in gpt2, labeling each with plain english descriptions of the role each neuron plays in the model.
this opens up a new direction in explainability and alignment in AI, helping make models more explainable and potentially easier to align.

Discriminating against opinions, or against their creators, on grounds other than criticisms of their content is not only immoral, it is *the* existential danger to civilisation that underlies all others.

🐁 One of the most famous psychology experiments of all time, lost for 85 years because it was never formally published—because scientific publishing standards were already snafued—finally rediscovered!
Many lessons here. gwern.net/maze

I have been the Data Editor for Management Science now for one year, supported by my team members @MilosFisar and @ozkesali. Within this year, we reviewed replication packages for almost 130 papers. So it's time for some stats. A thread. (1/12) @INFORMS

All the supplementary material of "The Sequence of the Human Genome" published in @ScienceMagazine in 2001 have vanished. Even the editor-in-chief, Holden Thorp, couldn't find them. I was once told that the data is the soul of scientific articles. Well, this one is soulless. 1/2
