Stephen Hawking’s last paper, co-authored with ERC grantee Thomas Hertog, proposes a new cosmological theory, in which universe is less complex and finite
You are putting forward a new theory of the origin of the universe. What’s wrong with the current one?

@… No recognizable strategy.
Cancel negotiations with the EU.
“Oh, big surprise, they’ve excluded us from ERC!”
“Let’s create transitional measures because research is important!”
“Research and higher ed isn’t really that important, let’s cut funding: it’s the universities’ turn to contribute to a balanced budget!”
What’s next?

SACRÉ BLEU: Self-Assessed Creator Royalties Énforced by Balancing Liquidity Estimation & Utility (A formal definition and analysis of Ethereum Request for Comment ERC-7526)
The secondary market for Ethereum non-fungible tokens (NFTs) has resulted in over $1.8bn being paid to creators in the form of a sales tax commonly called creator royalties. This was despite royalty payments being enforced by no more than social contract alone. Predictably, such an incentive structure led to zero-royalty alternatives becoming abundant and payments dwindled. A purely programmatic solution to royalty enforcement is hampered by the prevailing NFT standard, ERC-721, which is ignora…

AuditGPT: Auditing Smart Contracts with ChatGPT
To govern smart contracts running on Ethereum, multiple Ethereum Request for Comment (ERC) standards have been developed, each containing a set of rules to guide the behaviors of smart contracts. Violating the ERC rules could cause serious security issues and financial loss, signifying the importance of verifying smart contracts follow ERCs. Today's practices of such verification are to either manually audit each single contract or use expert-developed, limited-scope program-analysis tools, bot…

CKERC : Joint Large Language Models with Commonsense Knowledge for Emotion Recognition in Conversation
Emotion recognition in conversation (ERC) is a task which predicts the emotion of an utterance in the context of a conversation. It tightly depends on dialogue context, speaker identity information, multiparty dialogue scenario and so on. However, the state-of-the-art method (instructERC) solely identifying speaker, and ignores commonsense knowledge(i.e., reaction of the listeners and intention of the speaker, etc.) behind speakers during a conversation, which can deeply mine speaker informatio…

ERC Scientific Council member Tom Henzinger, a computer scientist at the Institute of Science & Technology Austria in Klosterneuburg, claims ChatGPT seems no different from running text by a colleague for feedback. And that particular use, as a critic of your paper, might actually be useful, but no, Tom, it's more like asking random undergrads to pen the core parts, and then not check their work.
