    Because the journals provide a quality gate. To be published in, say, Nature is a career peak for most scientists. While counting references to a paper can tell you some things about its relative merit, it’s not as clear an indicator as having a PNAS, Cell or similar on your resume.

    They have created a market for their name so it self-perpetuates.







  • In a world where the governance of AI was adequate and the spoils it created redistributed to benefit all (and thus thoroughly look after those who lost their job from AI replacement) I would LOVE AI to be created.

    In a world where either or both of those aren’t properly in place, I’d sooner be without it.

    By extension I’m saying the US is pretty much the worst place for AI to be invented.
