       "AI" research community:1) Claims to be building "everything machines", doesn't acknowledge that that means what they're doing is untestable (see Gebru & Torres 2024)https://firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/136362) Plays leaderboard games instead of doing serious evaluation (see Raji et al 2021)https://datasets-benchmarks-proceedings.neurips.cc/paper/2021/hash/084b6fbb10729ed4da8c3d3f5a3ae7c9-Abstract-round2.html>>

       3) Has extremely selective and presumably high prestige conferences (NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, AAAI) but orients towards arXiv and regularly cites arXiv versions of even published papers4) Pretends that they have to have the ability to push preprints into the world immediately upon drafting (I guess because their value is incredibly perishable; see Bender 2023)https://medium.com/@emilymenonbender/scholarship-should-be-open-inclusive-and-slow-15ab6ce1d74c>>

       5) Is now ready (at least at AAAI) to use synthetic text extruding machines as part of their "scientific" peer review process (AAAI 2025)https://aaai.org/aaai-launches-ai-powered-peer-review-assessment-system/6) Wants the rest of us to believe that their work should now be incorporated into everything we do, in every sphere of our lives.NO THANK YOU.
