Sorry, but that train has already departed. Check QS AI Framework. Soon unis will be ranked holistically based on AI adoption.

Thus, join a university who won't care about QS ranking, & work hard to bring it to the top 💪🏼

Pls keep reporting curious to know how it goes (delayed reviews, quality, etc.)

Good!

Sounds familiar. During & after PhD, batch was about my craft. During didn't mind. After got me sick. I still like the field, but my interest changed. Was I a R2? perhaps 🤷🏽. Who knows? Did it get me grumpy to review? Hell yes!

A bit of context from Twitter that you could have missed

Sounds like a recipe for growing grumpy @reviewer2.bsky.social

3 Doritos later, ppl complaint about their reviews:
For recipe, due to *human* misalignment about how a field should move forward.
In addition to the LLM-generated reviews.

What went wrong there?

Back in 2019, right after handing over my PhD thesis, I'd still regard myself as introvert. Then at some point I decided to embrace the #seekdiscomfort mantra & eventually enrolled a PhD in social engineering at the best uni for self-taught, da street!

Learo to talk a lot hence my choice
