  • Episode 398 - "Are you going to take our jobs?"
    2024/10/11
    Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making its way into academic research and writing, offering a range of tools that can help streamline workflows, enhance creativity, and improve productivity. In this episode, John and Shannon dive into some of the AI tools they’ve been experimenting with and discuss broader questions about fairness, disclosure, and the evolving role of AI in academia. Elsevier’s Policy on Generative AI in Writing (https://www.elsevier.com/about/policies-and-standards/the-use-of-generative-ai-and-ai-assisted-technologies-in-writing-for-elsevier) Research Rabbit (https://www.researchrabbit.ai/) - AI-powered tool for literature discovery. GitHub Co-pilot (https://github.com/features/copilot) - AI coding assistant. Elicit (https://elicit.org/) - AI for automating literature reviews and generating research insights. Magic To-Do (https://magictodo.app/) - AI-based task management tool. Autodraw (https://www.autodraw.com/) - AI-powered drawing tool. Fun Paper Friday Summary: So if AI takes over the world, what would it take to destory it? A solar flare should do it, and maybe us, in.

  • Episode 397 - "Terps"
    2024/10/04
    This week, we delve into the fascinating world of the ancient dwelling mounds—terps—of the northern Netherlands. These man-made mounds served as elevated homes for communities living in low-lying, flood-prone areas. Join us as we explore the geology of these mounds, why they were essential for survival, and how modern technology is used to monitor soil subsidence and preserve these unique archaeological sites. Learn More: Wierdenland Museum (https://www.museum.nl/en/museum-wierdenland-ezinge): Information about the museum and its exhibits on dwelling mounds. Late-Holocene sea-level reconstruction and sedimentological data (https://www.cambridge.org): An in-depth academic article on the evolution of the coastal landscape and sea-level changes influencing terp construction. Fun Paper Friday Summary: In this episode’s Fun Paper Friday, we discuss B.F. Skinner’s “Pigeons in a Pelican.” The paper recounts the story of "Project Pigeon," a World War II experiment that explored using pigeons to guide missiles by pecking at visual targets. Though the project faced skepticism and was never implemented in combat, it highlighted the potential of animal training and laid a foundation for behaviorist research. The study is a testament to how creative ideas can push the boundaries of science, even if they seem outlandish at first. Skinner, B. F. (1960). Pigeons in a Pelican.
