Any other academics on here affected by AI lovebombing, i.e., flattering mails from suspicious email addresses that summarize and praise your scholarship? What are they looking for? A friend replied and basically received the same email again.
Excited to see this happening, and a huge THANK YOU to @drewjakeprof.bsky.social for seeing this through!!
Friday nightmare: You finish a paragraph concluding that nothing else can be said and then discover a treatise by Aristotle… 😩😩😩
Guys, if you haven’t had a chance to read Rafe’s “When a Human Gives Birth to a Raven” (open access with UCP) do it! It’s a game-changer! If you don’t have time for the entire book, my review came out this week with AJS Review.

Ganz herzliche Gratulation, lieber Peter!!! 🚀
Found out yesterday that my student numbers have doubled. Next year, I’ll be teaching 115 students European Prehistory at degree level. Plus first years. Not certain how.
That’s what happens when universities don’t replace retiring staff.
