SO wow. I’ve just been *AI-ed*.
I googled ‘shadow institutional framework’ as shorthand to find the link to a journal article I wrote. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/02671520701809783
This is what I got on Google chrome (left).
This is my paper (right).

In the skewed world of academic publishing, we don’t even own the copyright to our own articles. So, if the academic publishers cared enough, they would go down that road of protecting the work. Instead, they have signed up with AI companies to let them train their LLMs on academic work for free and with no opt-out for individual researchers/authors.

I have the impression that copyright legislation in GB is a real mess. Nevertheless I doubt that a deal with any publisher would give _anyone_ free hands to create such snippets as they are essentially derivatives.
I am very interested to continue discussing this because the AI fuss is a project to fill our world with meaningless shit to a very much greater extent than until now.
Some vision, isn’t it? :D
@prachisrivas @academicchatter
I must admit that the copyright legislation of GB is totally perverted IMHO. What else can you say about a country following common law tradition and the copyright owners of legal cases are… ta-daa… barristers!
AFAIK this is the reason why there is no public, freeof charge, searchable index of cases.
Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

Same garbage in USA. A group of shell companies owned by one umbrella company controls access to legal case rulings. If you try to use Pacer at a courthouse you risk being harassed and treated like a terrorist–especially if it is a case you are working on for yourself. And let’s not even discuss transcripts. It can cost arm, leg, and firstborn to get a transcript of a case. The legal profession and the courts are a racket designed to serve the rich.
