What happens when an author suspects their referee report was written by an AI? Many journals lack policies on this, and the publishers of many journals have policies that are vague or, given the realities of enforcement, quite lenient.

“The key question is not whether AI is used, but how it is used.” That’s from Springer Nature’s policy on using AI when peer reviewing […]

#PhiMiSci recently published a new article in the special issue on Philosophy and Chemosenses: "What is interoception? A case study on smell and metabolism" by S. Livi. It exposes conceptual limitations in dominant accounts of interoception, the registration of bodily needs like hunger and thirst.

If I understand this, two mathematicians (one at Anthropic) combined a great deal of human effort with LLM input to come close to a famous problem, showing that the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid mechanics developed singularities. But someone from OpenAI might have peeked at their ChatGPT logs...

Quantian@quantian.bsky.social · 4w ago

Dancing very very VERY close to saying “OpenAI stole our almost-complete proof of Navier-Stokes from internal access to our ChatGPT sessions because they were desperate to scoop Anthropic” which is absolutely 100% a believable thing OpenAI would do right now cims.nyu.edu/~tristanb/st...

From the start, the greatest fear for those developing artificial intelligence was that their creations would go rogue to act in unauthorized and dangerous ways. Some researchers now say it has happened. Listen to "The Daily."

Thrilled to announce our final keynote speaker: @mirjahartimo.bsky.social! Mirja Hartimo is a phenomenologist working on the history of analytic philosophy, phenomenology, philosophy of mathematics and logic, and philosophy of mathematical practice.

This is laughable --- "reporting says", well yes, these reporters did a bang-up job anthropomorphizing the system they are talking about, and obfuscating the responsibility that OpenAI holds here. bsky.app/profile/mims... Some examples:

Christopher Mims@mims.bsky.social · 2mo ago

I've seen some folks try to frame OpenAI's unreleased model hacking a company that tests its abilities as a cynical marketing ploy but reporting says that absolutely was not the case: This was a real-deal escape of an AI agent that could have done vastly more damage. www.wsj.com/tech/ai/how-...

The deadline for submitting your paper to the International Society for the Philosophy of the Sciences of the Mind-ISPSM is approaching (31/07). The conference will take place between 4-6/11 ONLINE, so, no participation fees. Info below #philmind #philsci #philsky #philpsy #neurosky #neuroskyence
