I’d argue that this was largely true of bots before this too given the simple attention checks often used. I’m not discounting that this makes things harder to check but I‘m also am not convinced it’s a totally new concern or that AI will make significant results easier.

But if we start using AI instead of humans, AI will be trained by AI and it’s likely to become a game of telephone in that it will degrade over time. We won’t be able to capture changes over time or learn new insights with any real accuracy.

Interesting! I had seen this: www.newsweek.com/gen-z-pollin... but the Gallup data is even more general. Plus - my sanity needs it to be true 😆

Also a huge congrats to Dina Mayzlin (mentoring award), Ike Silver (teaching award), and Davide Proserpio (associate prof chair) for their well deserved awards! I am so lucky to have such talented and fun colleagues.

I’m so sorry Margaret. I know how much you loved Henry. Sending hugs.
