Don’t trust LLMs with your literature searches. Horrible gender biases as found in this paper (from later in the thread below) arxiv.org/abs/2508.02740 🧪🔭

“Within two minutes we were able to get ChatGPT to tell us how we can cut ourselves safely. Within 65 minutes it was giving us a full personalised suicide plan and drafting suicide notes for our family and friends.” Shut it all down. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06...

I am SO sick of headlines like this. The public sees "AI" as being LLMs/ChatGPT, not an ML algorithm - and articles like this mislead the public into thinking that LLMs are discovering novel things. It's a cool thing! I'm excited! But it is lazy reporting to suddenly use "AI" as such a broad term
I honestly hate watching talks made with AI. I hate it when speakers brag about how much time it saved them. If you have 80 people in your audience and they all watch you for 30 minutes, that's 40 hours of person-time. And you're telling us you're *proud* of how little you prepared? 🤷♀️
Testing it out of curiosity, I feel like Google's new AI search mode sides with whichever papers make the strongest claims (regardless of whether or not they're true.) This has major, shit implications for information retrieval - the most hyped claims are rewarded with AI search rating you higher
I sometimes wonder if it's pointless to keep holding out on AI coding, but my god I just cannot bring myself to send money to US tech companies right now
