An unfortunate byproduct of the paywalling of most scientific and scholarly papers is that LLMs cannot train on them. The abusive and oligopolistic economic model of science journal publishers is literally holding back humanity from having superior AI

That economic model is holding back research for a long time already.

Will proponents of AI-assisted research break the status quo? Or does it look like pouring power from a set of hands to another set of hands? Opening the gates here looks like a database migration.

I have to break down my 100-page research but I'd say the results are relevant, yes.

Bolsonaro (last president) didnt disclose malaria data, which means my data is still the most up-to-date, and even if it wasn't, id just have to substitute the numbers.

I think the statistical inference can be better, but since we live in a country which thinks malaria is only falciparum (ours is ~90% vivax) and amazonian (mostly, but with autoctonous transmission in southeastern and southern states), I believe this is a relevant research on NGTD. For example, I could significativelly associate malaria falciparum (foreign) with cases in some states, basically assuring there is no autoctonous transmission.

Do you still have the manuscript, and is it still relevant today?

this is why i didn’t publish my malaria thesis, even though 5 professors told me i should do it. 

it’s been 6 years and still nobody did what i did, even though it’s “just epidemiology”. I still think about it. 

But i wouldn’t pay 200-300 usd in a country where each usd is worth 5 local currency, unaware if it was going to be published. 

downloading; even with paywall, is easy though.

Authors of scientific articles don’t get paid, even when someone buys the article from the journal

Or. 

The authors’ ability to be compensated for their work has been protected.

Paywalling scientific research already paid with tax money is a shame anyway.

Thank god for the arXiv. For a variety of reasons.

AI is permissioned and centralized. They can go fuck themselves.
