Folks getting in the weeds about licensing agreements but this research study engaged me in research, by creating a bespoke dataset about me, before I agreed to participate. They already made the dataset before I was invited to participated. That's not how informed consent works
somebody at UChicago is feeding preprints to LLMs without authors' consent, in a research study
they have the gall to suggest to authors they've opted-in that they volunteer to evaluate the LLMs' suggestions regarding their own work.
lol, lmao even. here is the invite and my reply

What AJ said. Would love to know why the Curbed NY archives have been offline for a while now. Losing those would mean losing years of history about the built environment, and that would really suck!
The archives for the old Curbed city sites have been offline for at least two weeks. If these sites are gone for good, it’s not just a loss for those who contributed to Curbed over the years, but a loss of ~15 years of reporting on new development, neighborhoods, and architecture criticism.

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care.

I finished the gay hockey books, and they are as good as everyone said. To anyone not reading/watching because you think you don’t like romance, I was once one of you. These books taught me that it’s not romance, as a genre, that I hate. It’s the traditional male/female power structure they lean on.

Upshot of this thread?
Support reliable independent journalism, because corporate & billionaire-owned sources simply cannot be trusted anymore.

It’s been very striking to see mainstream news coverage of Venezuela. The not-so-subtle framing is: this wasn’t a bad idea. The sourcing is: a random assortment of people in the U.S. who don’t have to deal with the ramifications of Trump’s strike on Venezuela.
