       @simon Yes exactly. This is how Elicit works and perplexity.ai too.

       Survey in Nature: of >9,000 scientists who are or have been on Twitter (sigh, 'X'), more than half said they've cut back their use in the past 6 months and 7% said they've stopped using it. More details in story by Myriam Vidal Valero. https://nature.com/articles/d41586-023-02554-0

       A month-long strike at ProMED mail — the disease-surveillance system that issued some of the earliest warnings about COVID — will end on 11 September, Max Kozlov reports for Nature.  The International Society for Infectious Diseases (ISID), which operates ProMED, agreed to continue addressing the issues that sparked the walkout. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-02750-y

       Milestone: 2023 is the first year with more than 10,000 research paper retractions -- smashing previous records. More than 8,000 of these came from Hindawi (mostly from 'special issues'). Total retractions now >50,000. My analysis for Nature. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-03974-8
