How can we get to a more optimistic AI-empowered future for academia and science?

It is an interesting idea, but peer-replication is probably too much additional work to be a real solution to problems in academic research.
Rather I think we should specifically fund replication efforts with 1-5% of total grant budget #AcademicChatter […]

I usually write articles in online documents along with medium sized teams. I just started on a new manuscripts as the sole author. It's so refreshing not having to do comments, tracked changes, explaining your approach, justifying deletions, etc! #AcademicChatter

Anyone else? Would love to know what spots around the globe you've called home.
