New from me on productivity, AI, and the problems in how we measure it: “AI’s core function is completing goals as if they were a yes/no checkmark: having a text, rather than writing the text; having a numbered list of ideas rather than finding a good idea.” www.techpolicy.press/generative-a...
Generative AI’s Productivity Myth | TechPolicy.Press
People may be using artificial intelligence, but that doesn’t mean it’s useful, writes Eryk Salvaggio.

"AI evangelists, and others keen on rationalizing academia, reframe the traditional process of research as a problem in need of a solution"
"AI evangelists, and others keen on rationalizing academia, reframe the traditional process of research as a problem in need of a solution"
What's the value of academic articles and doing research? The product or the process?
This article has been a long process, and how I've processed the ongoing AI disruption of research. I use it very little, and while it's clearly not all bad, I argue for caution.
