Honestly this. I don’t want MORE papers, I don’t want MORE conferences to attend, and I don’t want MORE meetings scheduled. I want a quality papers. I want a few good conferences that are representative of the field and an EMAIL summary not a zoom 🙂↔️
I’ve been saying for months that the AI tools used in hiring are disproportionately rejecting various competencies and aren’t actually working. There is no way that I can skills match the job at 98%, BE BILINGUAL, and have a doctorate and not even get shortlisted. But I’m disabled. #bias #killAI

FWIW, I don’t think the major problem in my field, or related ones, is that people need to move faster & produce more.
I read a lot of papers as part of the job, and I’m increasingly convinced we’d benefit from fewer papers and better ones, not more mediocre work produced ever more “efficiently.”
