“I study immigration and public opinion, not AI. But I’ve spent the last few months watching AI transform my own research workflow, and I have some things to say to my colleagues. For the first time in my life, I genuinely do not know what academia will look like in five years.1 Even if progress stalls completely and we are stuck with the current models forever, the changes already in motion will transform my field of academic research and publishing beyond recognition. The status quo is unsustainable. It may take time, because academia is the most dispositionally conservative institution on the planet. But it will change.”
