“But surely all academics want their papers to be read” you cry. Some certainly do. But a lot of people actively dislike it.

Working in the public sector this is exactly how I think things are going. Someone writes a bullet list of stuff. They ask AI to turn it into a lengthy report for a committee. The committee members ask AI to turn the report into an easier to read bullet list. Chinese whispers happens in between.
