In my view this is an important article that everybody who publishes in the scientific literature should read. It's written by a stellar line up of "data sleuths" | @AbalkinaAnna | @MicrobiomDigest | @deevybee | @JAByrneSci | @gcabanac | @ClearSkiesAdam | @nickwizzo | buff.ly/3Cr9eBA

Looking at feedback on @UndermindAI , mostly positive though there's the typical "interpretation of search results” might be inaccurate. To me even humans make such errors, my question is do LLMs (with or without RAG) make similar errors as humans (1)

We explored the powerful collaboration between leading open-source initiatives like OMP, DOAB, OAPN, TOTE, and the Open Book Collective. These independent entities are working together to build a transparent, coordinated infrastructure supporting the dissemination of OA books.

.@JudithFathallah on academic precarity and publishing #OpenAccess. Access and impact trump “prestige” which no longer is a guarantee for an academic job. The “implicit contract” has been broken so all things being equal open access gives more exposure. #OASPA2024

We've heard this more than once at #OASPA2024 but also heard 'community-led' identified as a term of 'value' by a commercial press. Important to be clear about *what* e.g. 'community-led' *means* to avoid a kind of 'community-washing' as organisations latch on to the term.
Andrea Chiarelli@drAChiarelli17 Sep 2024
Devika Madalli argues that the time has come for calls for *disruption*, given the failure of many calls for *action* to date. She suggests a need for rights retention and community-led and shared infrastructure. #OASPA2024
