Happy Halloween, punks! Let's all take a moment to remember the year I made my confused husband dress up as a paywall so I could be Open Access Hero.

"What’s with All the Tapestries?
Intersectionality and the Discursive Vacuum of Generative AI”

We use methods called “kibbitzing” and “futzing” to critique the representation of intersectional identity in ChatGPT & MidJourney.

To achieve 100% #OpenAccess, you need to engage with issues on repositories and #GreenOpenAccess route. This is where libraries can support #OA100. 👇

Thinking about #AI, Paul Ford (@ftrain) proposes a quirky but plausible test to distinguish bubble technologies from normal technologies.
https://www.wired.com/story/ai-normal-after-ai-plateaus/
(#paywalled)

"The metric I use is the C/B ratio: conferences to blogging. If people are steadily attending conferences about a subject, it is not normal yet. If they’re mostly blogging about it, it is. I made this up, but I assure you it’s predictive."

By this test, he concludes that AI is a bubble technology.

I bring this up because it seems that this test also makes #OpenAccess a bubble something, even if not a technology. But I'd call OA normal -- here to stay, wanted for good reasons, widely accepted, widely implemented, and growing, though previously novel and still overcoming obstacles.

Now I'm wondering: Is Ford's test bogus? Is it valid in some domains but not for something like OA? If it applies to OA, am I applying it too loosely? Or is OA still not normal?
