Is ChatGPT making scientists hyper-productive? The highs and lows of using AI
Large language models are transforming scientific writing and publishing. But the productivity boost that these tools bring could come with a downside.

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.

I did not need to learn today that Norman Finkelstein is anti-trans. This anti-woke screed is extremely disappointing.
Again proving my rule that famous ppl are only allowed to be right about 1 thing at a time. If they're right about more than 1 thing the CIA abducts them and throws them in a dungeon.

Transgender Cult
  A recent cover of the hyper-woke New Yorker magazine featured a transgender person. The Boston Children’s Hospital defines gender dysphoria as “a conflict between the sex you were assigned a…

Dammit my mood crashed. It did cross my mind that the hyper productive and creative phase that I was experiencing was likely to lead to this. Had an afternoon nap but didn’t really sleep and felt anxious. Now I’m depressed and anxious. I’m away for work tomorrow for a day and a half. Hopefully the change of scenery and catching up with my best friend whom I mostly only see on screen will help.

I've been reading Ray Dailo's "Principles for dealing with the changing world order" in which he charts the rise and fall of empires and kingdoms and dynasties.
The main cycle, he reckons is:
1) Winner of a war consolidates power, unites the population (often through oppression)
2) A smart cooperative equitable educated society with meritocracy means good societal progress and wide sharing of the wealth.
3) Long period of peace, building good tech and military and financial systems.
4) Leadership corrupts: Excessive debt, money-printing, inequality, financial ruin, no sense of solidarity, then a natural disaster pushes it over the edge
5) The fall: Escalating rebellions, very bad inequality, internal conflicts
6) Civil war, revolution, eventually a strong leader proves the winner and back to 1.
We in the western civilization are very clearly in the late states of this kind of cycle, and it's frankly terrifying with the weapons we have these days when it comes to a war.
The leadership is too corrupt to try and fix the inequality or invest in that well educated, equitable, cooperative society.
He explicitly agrees with Marx and implicitly with me a lot more than I'd have expected from the rabid capitalist that Ray Dailo is.
It's interesting to hear his emphasis on inequality and how a prosperous society depends upon sharing the gains of prosperity widely. You tend to hear hyper-capitalists mostly emphasizing that capital's gains should go to capital, and Ray is certainly suggesting the opposite here. That if that happens, it corrupts the leadership and ends with cronyism and debt and revolution.
We seem to basically agree what creates good prosperous peaceful civil society, and that capitalism in the Anglican world isn't doing it, and that fucked up corrupt government is why we aren't doing it.
We'd offer fairly different prescriptions though I think.

Mock Observatory: two thousand lightcone mock catalogues of luminous red galaxies from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey for the cosmological large-scale analysis
Estimating a reliable covariance matrix for correlation functions of galaxies is a crucial task to obtain accurate cosmological constraints from galaxy surveys. We generate 2,000 independent lightcone mock luminous red galaxy (LRGs) catalogues at $0.3 \leq z \leq 1.25$, designed to cover CAMIRA LRGs observed by the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Programme (HSC SSP). We first produce full-sky lightcone halo catalogues using a COmoving Lagrangian Acceleration (COLA) technique, and then…

Hyper-algebraic invariants of $p$-adic algebraic numbers
Let $p\geq 3$ be a prime. In this article, we introduce two arithmetic invariants (hyper-tame index and hyper-inertia index) of the hyper-algebraic elements in the $p$-adic Mal'cev-Neumann field $\mathbb{L}_p$. For $p$-adic algebraic numbers that generate abelian extensions and tamely ramified extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, we calculate their hyper-tame indexes and hyper-inertia indexes.
