In this episode, Joy Moore and Kent Anderson unpack how the internet pushed science publishing toward scale, how open access changed incentives, and how paper mills, predatory publishers, and AI slop made the scientific record harder to defend. They also explain why LLMs create a new problem on top of an old one. Once scientific papers are copied, summarized, remixed, and scattered across preprints, accepted manuscripts, and published versions, it becomes much harder to correct errors or retract bad information. For science, that is not a small technical issue. It is a trust issue. For business leaders, researchers, and anyone using AI tools to make decisions, this episode is a reminder that source quality still matters. Not every paper is useful. Not every signal is reliable. And not every “science” product deserves your trust. Newsletter 📧💌📧 Tune in to get my thoughts and all episodes.
