What percentage of those are worthless? For some journals, probably 100% (those where you have to pay to get it published). For the very top journals probably 25%. This constitutes an enormous waste of talent. Some, myself for instance, are not so hot at research and much better at teaching. I was able to avoid most research and others should be able to choose this path. This would lighten the worthless load quite a bit. bill w </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Jan 16, 2022 at 5:23 PM Colin Hales via extropy-chat <<a href="mailto:extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org" target="_blank">extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">I recently acted as handling editor for a submission for a well known journal.

Finally, an AI that does your writing for you.<br>
Say goodbye to writer’s block. With this AI writing assistant, you can<br>
generate high-quality, human-level blog posts, landing pages, emails,<br>
product descriptions, digital ads and more in seconds.<br>
----------------------<br>
<br>
The software is impressive but still needs human editing.<br>
Fact-checking is also required. Since it uses the web to create, the<br>
more widely covered the topic, the more sources it has to extract<br>
information from. However, having more information available also<br>
means that more misinformation is also available, making it harder to<br>
tell facts from fiction.<br>
Pricing can be expensive.<br>
<br>
It will soon be difficult to tell whether you are talking to or<br>
reading posts from a human or AI software.<br>
