How many of these books will just be totally garbage nonsense just so they could fulfill a rearranged quota.
Now the LLM are filled with a good amount of nonsense.
Just use the llm to make the books that the llm then uses, what could go wrong?
Someone's probably already coined the term, but I'm going to call it LLM inbreeding.
It's quite similar to another situation known as data incest
I suggested this term in academic circles, as a joke.
I also suggested hallucinations ~3-6 years ago only to find out it was ALSO suggested in the 1970s.
Inbreeding, lol
The real term is synthetic data
but it amounts to about the same
Soylent AI? Auto-infocannibalism
It can only go right because corporations must be punished for trying to replace people with machines.
And they expect you to do this for free?
Do they not have to pay for the privilege? Or is this not referring to academic publishing? (It’s not super clear, but context indicates academic?)
If it is that makes it even worse. Academic publishers need to be abolished.
Nah, they get “Exposure”!
/s
Anyone who reviews for the major publishers is part of the problem.
For profit corporations don't deserve your volunteer work.
And yet if you aren't a reviewer it makes your CV look worse.
Soylent Green is a lie anyway. Your need to "soylentify" half the population to feed the other half every year if it would be the only source of calories.
No, the point is that they're just recycling the dissidents they were going to murder anyway.
Jfc that's gross
