Taylor & Francis and Wiley sold out their researchers in bulk, this should be a crime.
Researchers need to be able to consent or refuse to consent and science need to be respected more than that.

I won't say that AI is the greatest thing since sliced bread but it is here and it's not going back in the bottle. I'm glad to see that we're at least trying to give it accurate information, instead of "look at all this user data we got from Reddit, let's have searches go through this stuff first!" Then some kid asks if it's safe to go running with scissors and the LLM says "yes! It's perfectly fine to run with sharp objects!"
The tech kinda really sucks full stop, but it'll be marginally better if it's information is at least accurate.
Hmm, that makes sense. The toothpaste can't go back into the tube, so they're going a bit deeper to get a bit higher.
That does shift my opinion a bit -- something bad is at least being made better -- although the "let's use more content-that-wants-to-be-open in our closed-content" is still a consternation.
Not wrong there, it's one of the things that makes me critical of genai
This could be true if they were to give more weight to academic sources, but I fear it will probably treat them like any other source, so a published paper and some moron on Reddit will still get the same say on wether the Earth is round.
I promise you, they absolutely will treat it as equally valid input data.
