I’m thinking it’s time to rebrand my nickname from Solid State UX to Solid State Evidence. AI don’t care about my hover states and modals, yo.

AI doesn’t care about articles. It cares about tasks and chunks.
But in those chunks, it often loses the plot—like forgetting a paper was retracted.
This is a must read from @aarontay

Great piece by Katie Parrott on how to keep your writing weird in the age of AI. Be your own goddamn arbiter of texture and give your erudite idiot scribe a style guide!

Today’s platforms shine for human eyes. Tomorrow’s will shine for LLMs. Scrapeable, readable, reason-ready. The AI Gateway is opening — are we ready to step through? #ScholarlyPublishing #AIGateway

PSA It’s a new era of ergonomics.
The primary audience of your thing (product, service, library, …) is now an LLM, not a human.
LLMs don’t like to navigate, they like to scrape.
LLMs don’t like to see, they like to read.
LLMs don’t like to click, they like to curl.
Etc etc.

Tired: elaborate docs pages for your product/service/library with fancy color palettes, branding, animations, transitions, dark mode, … Wired: one single docs .md file and a “copy to clipboard” button.

This is a game changer. You can use ChatGPT to transform equations to python functions.

One thing I appreciate about Projekt Deal/@ColleenCampbe11 is the absolute focus on speeding the transition. No messing around with anti-hybrid. No trying to change where researchers should publish (e.g. commercial vs non-comm). Just get the hybrids to be fully OA over time.

MDPI news: "The second largest journal in the world just lost its impact factor."
Paolo Crosetto@PaoloCrosetto
Ok this is big. Web of Science just removed the MDPI flagship journal IJERPH from their lists. This means IJERPH has no more an Impact Factor. Why is this big? What are the implications? 🧵

"it's still the gold standard. But it is a not easy-to-use tool. It's clunky. And as a result, we've allowed some ankle biters to come in around the edges." Does Clarivate see Elsevier's Scopus as an "ankle biter"? Or what else would this be referring to? seekingalpha.com/article/458351…

"Web of Science is absolutely the gold standard... Over the last 10 years, we allowed that product to become a little dusty in terms of user interface, in terms of analytics...I would call that an own goal. We are in the process of making investments." Clarivate earnings call

@rschon Leadership integrations are like soufflés. Loud noises, humidity can affect them. They are justifiably proud.

I am listening in on the Clarivate investors call this morning and found this to be quite an interesting claim: The leadership integration with ProQuest “has gone extremely well.”

Or maybe it's because I'm going to be discussing the real inside baseball of M&A strategy with @rschon ;-)
