Me: Searching on algorithmic platforms like TikTok and Instagram don't return precise results.

Reviewer: If you cannot guarantee that results are reproducible, then your study has a fatal flaw.

Double check topic expertise, listed as "Expert". Somehow I doubt this.

"Wow, I wish I had come across this tool sooner. This would've been so useful for this project I worked on 2 years ago. Let me add it to Pinbo-"

"Oh."

In addition to teaching young adults new skills to cope against labor replacement... I think the key thing is to help them build resiliency, and more importantly, regain a sense of hopefulness.

It's a significantly harder challenge altogether.

Lots of universities lately have been making announcements about AI transformation strategies, etc...

It would be interesting (read: someone study this for me) to do a longitudinal analysis of how these PR messaging evolve in the next few years, or posts disppearing.

I'm not saying this is a bubble — because even my grand uncle who has never touched a computer in his life is now an "AI pundit". But I doubt everything is going to work out so smoothly.

You may not need to use arXiv.

If you're just looking for a place to collect, organize, and share your WIP works or miscellaneous research outputs... check out your institution's digital repository.

It's so hard to find the right collaborators. People have to have enough:

1) Motivation
2) Time
3) Expertise
4) General capacity to deliver

... And funding and interest alignment on top of it all.

With juniors, there is more than enough 1&2, but 3&4 are always a concern; it's the opposite with seniors.

It's funny: The more all these products/platforms push AI tool integrations, the more I find myself digging up old sites/books and going back to the basics... regardless of whether it's writing, statistical analysis, or programming.

The more prevalent they are, the more I feel the need to double check basic rules and best practices.
