In fairness to Elsevier, I was talking to a colleague just yesterday on how stigmatized it obviously is in many circles to call gen-AI the con job it is.

These circles emphatically include way too much of academe. I read my colleague the bit from the introduction to AI Snake Oil about how its authors called out AI papers for arrant bullshit but their critique was deemed unpublishable.

I've also run into that tone-policey bullshit (not about gen AI yet). Fuck. That. Sideways.
