i’m tired of every paper (even critical ones) on societal impact of AI starting by both-siding the “benefits” and risks/harms of AI in academia, i would like us to arrive at a collective reckoning that we don’t need to play both sides. it's totally legit to clearly state just the harms. period

Even when asked to write the "con" side of a pro/con piece, you should have seen what happened in peer review when we tried only describing the harms and failure modes. Indubitably the most vitriolic reviews I've received in a 30 year career.
