Interesting take. It feels like academia is now stuck between being a training ground for AI models and being slowly gutted by them. First the AI companies read all the research, now they’re hiring away the researchers too.
The irony? Universities helped build the tools that are now disrupting them. Feels like open access became open season.
I've been working on a small social project myself (Stranger-Meet.com), and even there I’ve noticed how quickly AI is swallowing human connection. It's fascinating—and a little scary—how fast it's moving across industries.
Curious how many institutions will pivot to AI ethics and regulation, or just license their data and call it a win.
