Building good measurement tools is what science is suppose to do.</description><pubDate>24 Sep 2026 10:54 +0000</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">at://did:plc:4akadh5tc7szyse6ozul3wue/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwb3q3de3c25</guid></item><item><link>https://bsky.app/profile/mathisfederico.aster.id/post/3mw6jyv5ugk2y</link><description>AI in science is not the problem, just like any other tool.&#xA;&#xA;Incentives given by considering papers as unit of work and journals and citations as measure of quality are the direct cause of the current enshitification of science.&#xA;&#xA;AI just amplified the means to follow incentives blindly.</description><pubDate>23 Sep 2026 10:31 +0000</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">at://did:plc:4akadh5tc7szyse6ozul3wue/app.bsky.feed.post/3mw6jyv5ugk2y</guid></item><item><link>https://bsky.app/profile/mathisfederico.aster.id/post/3mw3vpplki22h</link><description>Filtering academic works is not only futile, it also drives bad incentives.&#xA;&#xA;Whenever there is a filter, a KPI becomes maximising the number of works that passes the filter.&#xA;&#xA;Thus quantity over quality, strain on the filter, and you end up exactly in our current peer-review situation.</description><pubDate>22 Sep 2026 09:23 +0000</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">at://did:plc:4akadh5tc7szyse6ozul3wue/app.bsky.feed.post/3mw3vpplki22h</guid></item><item><link>https://bsky.app/profile/mathisfederico.aster.id/post/3mouutu52tc2s</link><description>Scientific publications are mistaken for valuable outputs, a consequence on relying on peer-review for quality control.&#xA;&#xA;The true evaluation of research starts AFTER publication. Did the research produce any evidence that actually changed minds or reinforced our beliefs?&#xA;&#xA;If not what have you done?</description><pubDate>22 Jun 2026 12:22 +0000</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">at://did:plc:4akadh5tc7szyse6ozul3wue/app.bsky.feed.post/3mouutu52tc2s</guid></item><item><link>https://bsky.app/profile/mathisfederico.aster.id/post/3ml24eha54c2s</link><description>We need to change perspective to fix our broken scientific system.&#xA;&#xA;Thank you Michael Horn for the invitation to share my view in his great podcast The Future of Education!&#xA;&#xA;It&#39;s about time we optimize for true #ScientificProgress, not papers, but #ChangeMinds being #EvidenceBased.&#xA;https://www.linkedin.com/posts/michaelbhorn_what-if-the-peer-review-process-isnt-just-ugcPost-7457076125060534272-7zVE?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop&amp;rcm=ACoAACySfSABH-r5TpIcNN42cBoYiIMplONTovo</description><pubDate>04 May 2026 16:39 +0000</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">at://did:plc:4akadh5tc7szyse6ozul3wue/app.bsky.feed.post/3ml24eha54c2s</guid></item><item><link>https://bsky.app/profile/mathisfederico.aster.id/post/3mddpkgpdoi2a</link><description>As young scientist you will have to choose:&#xA;&#xA;#Academia?
