Too many ppl taking the wrong lessons from the three-balled rat "AI" generated #frontiers paper. The problem isnt "predatory publishers" or that one person didnt peer review hard enough. The problem is that we actively construct a system where companies make billions of dollars selling prestige vouchers academics have to buy to survive. If the for-profit journals didnt make the system a game, there would be nothing to play.
Frontiers is a symptom. Science, Cell, Nature, and the prestige treadmill they exploit us with is the disease.
