AI is accelerating an existing epistemic crisis in academia, creating a self-reinforcing loop of degraded knowledge.

I love getting midway through reading a sentence and realizing it's LLM slop. There is no essay about Churchill being depressed or bricklaying to cure depression. I pray for an asteroid to hit Silicon Valley and the epistemic pollution

Ask an LLM to list socially manipulative behavior and then ask it to go through the list and categorize which are done by men or by women more. It will twist itself into knots to avoid saying women engage in any manipulative behavior and wi

I'm not in your situation, but I've hit the bottom of the despair and found the inner "fuck it we ball" within me. I don't know what's an option for you, but I'm learning bartending, stocking shelves, and

The Telexistence demo isn't so bad, but I have no idea why we're trying to make human robots generally. The human shape sucks at a most things, and we already have people treating roombas and GPT like their boyfriends or pets...

I have a function that compares letters to numbers for the Major System and it's like 40 lines of code and copilot starts trying to add "guard rails" for "future proofing" as if we're adding more numbers or let

Defensive programming is considered "correct" by the people doing the reinforcing, and is a huge part of the corpus that LLM's are trained on. For example, most python code doesn't do manual index management, so when it
