for those migrating to Bluesky: these days me, as well as many others, are getting dozens of new Bluesky followers every day. But please before following anyone, write something about yourself in your profile, and have a profile pic. You are more likely to get followed-back

regarding the publisher MDPI: a tragedy put MDPI into the spotlight "Performance metrics for editorial staffers prioritize the quantity of published manuscripts over their quality [...] It incentivizes us to push towards publication instead of rejection" retractionwatch.com/2024/10/22/you…

recent *review paper* on (neural) amortised simulation-based inference. I haven't seen it publicized much here among my connections, so there you go
Andrew Zammit-Mangion@andrewzm

Had a great time writing this review paper with former student Matthew Sainsbury-Dale and @HuserRaphael on "Neural Methods for Amortised Parameter Inference". Hope it's found as a useful resource, I definitely learned a lot writing it! #rstats arxiv.org/abs/2404.12484

it generated a 15 minutes podcast involving a realistic discussion between two persons about the paper. It was an engaging conversation, with very realistic voices, interruptions, accents. Incredible. 4/n

When the AI Notebook returns comments, it also cites the exact paragraphs in the paper that are relevant for the comments. You can see where this is going. You can also use it to extract a summary of a paper you wish to read, and "scaringly enough"....3/n

yesterday I refereed a paper, read it from start to finish as usual, and sent the review to a journal. This morning I read on LinkedIn of the NotebookLM project by Google, an AI "research assistant". You can upload a paper and "interrogate" it. 1/n notebooklm.google.com

Students at Stanford have built alphaXiv, an open discussion forum for arXiv papers. Think of it as 𝕏 for research.

@MarvinSchmittML Perhaps you could give your take on alphaXiv, if you see it as something potentially big coming, since it is backed up by Stanford. This is a topic falling more broadly into "academic life" than data science, i know ....
