@miltondp @hakyim Congratulations Milton! 🎉

I'm so grateful to all my mentors along the way @greenescientist @MarylynRitchie @hakyim, Diego Milone and Georgina Stegmayer. I'm truly excited to start this new chapter in my career and our life with my family, Sofia, Joaco, and Guada.

If you're watching TV in #Denver this month, you might catch me on a commercial for #CUAnschutz. 🙀 🙀 🙀 🙀

It includes highlights of work with #BigData and #AI/#ArtificialIntelligence

Nice article today @Nature by @biancanogrady on 'hyperauthorship' in science. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-00575-3. It reminds me of a 2018 blog post I wrote about the 'Deep Review' from @greenescientist and Anthony Gitter, which used a Python script to determine the final authorship order: https://blogs.nature.com/naturejobs/2018/02/20/techblog-manubot-powers-a-crowdsourced-deep-learning-review/

@AedinCulhane the star button on many apps is the equivalent. It doesn't affect what gets displayed but does let folks know.

@AedinCulhane woo! I'm sure I won't be the last!

Hey, folks. Big layoffs at DigitalOcean today, and my team and I were hit. In fact, so was my adjacent team, and a good chunk of my department. I don't have much reach here on Mastodon yet, but if anybody wants to discuss opportunities for a technical editor / writer / manager of same, I'm up for it.

@ctb @jashapiro @jperkel Say it ain't so! 🙀 🙀 🙀

Seems sensible to me right now, but with the speed of change, how long will this hold true? What properties or abilities would you expect an AI to have for it to qualify for authorship in a scholarly context?

Personal responsibility, consent and agency come to mind, but I have no idea how one would validate these properties.

I suspect scientific editors will be confronting this soon. 2/

@castedo their figure is very nice though!

Always makes me think of this XKCD, and somehow the answer turns out to actually, finally, be yes!

@kdm9 At this time, it's GPT-3. @miltondp and I have played around with ChatGPT as well and think the potential for improvement is even greater. The challenge right now is the lack of an API for ChatGPT. Let us know how it goes! There's always room to improve the prompts.

This is insane! Open-source chatGPT-based manuscript copy-editing. Definitely going to try manubot.org on some papers I'm currently writing.

Thanks @greenescientist et al.!
