    Absent evidence, this reads like AI psychosis.

      Big claims require and all, but he's an Asst. Prof at CMU, so not the usual suspect for AIP - and presumably there's pudding on the way given the description of this "Open Source Week" thingy. Will be interesting to see what comes out...

        Slop gets produced at just about every level. A week ago: some promotor of a product looking for funding did the 'Claude write me a rebuttal' thing to some stuff that was off-center and it made them look really silly. This wasn't exactly a small op either and yet, apparently the higher ups at these places are just fine being represented like that. I'm surprised that CMU doesn't have a policy on this (and if they do that it isn't followed).

        That said, this article could have been a lot worse, so I guess thanks for that...

          more recently, I've (allegedly) seen a arxiv preprint by a proper tenure track professor that was suspiciously AI slop (and incorrect nonetheless!)

          I feel like I'm losing it
