    Here is my suggestion: scale the “difficulty” to the same rate as the submissions. Instruct the reviewers like this: “this year we had 10x the average submissions of the last 5 yea…

    Ok but what you described is very different than being forced to review if you submit. If anyone who submits a paper has to review that is just ridiculous. There is no requirement …

    It’s important to notice that flagged papers were still accepted; anyone who spends any time around researchers knows the fact that most people are salivating over AI. That’s why t…

    This is the truth. As a researcher, I say good riddance. It was always kinda stupid, AI is just accelerating the demise of something that hasn’t worked correctly for a few decades …

    “…because conferences have made it mandatory to review 4-5 papers if you submit to them.” Is that really a thing? So if I submit a legit paper it is being reviewed forcefully by a …

    You are arguing that creativity is still alive by showing creative works from before AI? I think your argument is backwards.

    Hey, I gotta say that reading your actual original words feels much more interesting than whatever is that artificial slop on your website!

    The problem is that we want, at the same time, to allow everyone to do it (by not enforcing any rules against it) AND laugh at a satire like this as if it was ridiculous. Both thin…

    It’s a joke and all but also not really? You might have to go do a chalk talk at some point, and that is basically the only part of this article that is actually not real. The rest…

    Why would you bother telling them it’s satire?

    To be honest, given the overwhelming (and unfair, and unreasonable) pressure against them from the Leviathan, which the other companies do not have to deal with, they’re doing pret…

    The FBI has started to test the idea in other countries: https://www.mixvale.com.br/2026/06/26/fbi-warns-brazilian-po...

    Let me guess, somebody magically set some huge bets on poly and stock market 5 minutes before the announcement ?

    Honest question: how do you think you contributed to the discussion by throwing some AI slop into an AI slop conversation?

    That’s a great scene, with great writing, and a nice article written about it, but we’ve all been there. Anyone with a couple of synapses has thought “AI is not like humans”. To re…

    Interesting when you mention Ship of Theseus, I never thought of that but I wonder if that is where the name “Ship of Harkinian” comes from?

    It’s funny when people dismiss this as some kind of Luddite argument, when the reality is so simple: you have a producer-consumer system where the producer has been accelerated 100…

    If the writer did not put effort to write, why would you put effort to read? Writing became 1000x faster but reading stayed the same speed.

    ” Perhaps we’ll get used to this new tool, and move on.” Perhaps we’ll be flooded with slop to the point where nobody can distinguish reality from fiction anymore, because it takes…

    It does not matter, to be honest. Slowly people are realizing that nobody checks anything anymore, and when they check, nobody cares about positives or negatives, be them true or f…

    Not only that but the vacation is real . If someone is off then you should not expect them to answer at all (because if you do you’ll get very disappointed).

    I read one sentence into this and knew directly that the developer must’ve been Swedish!

    They’re using public money to “train” this.
