Expert Opinions
Some experts believe that publishing research is key to making connections in the field. As one expert notes:
I say all that to say, as a physics student getting my undergrad, simply doing independent research and speaking to experts about it enabled me to network with someone I otherwise likely wouldn’t know.
Others have had negative experiences with publishing research. One expert claims:
The first tried to publish novel results for 3 years in tier 1 journals before finally doing a preprint and telling the tier one publishers to jump in a fire.
The lack of published research has led to concerns about the validity of claims made by some AI startups. One expert warns:
It’s a vicious loop, because this same junk then goes in to train the next models which help spit out the next set of models AND blogs/papers.
