🔴 💻 **Are chatbots reliable text annotators? Sometimes**

“_Given the unreliable performance of ChatGPT and the significant challenges it poses to Open Science, we advise caution when using ChatGPT for substantive text annotation tasks._”

Ross Deans Kristensen-McLachlan, Miceal Canavan, Marton Kárdos, Mia Jacobsen, Lene Aarøe, Are chatbots reliable text annotators? Sometimes, PNAS Nexus, Volume 4, Issue 4, April 2025, pgaf069, doi.org/10.1093/pnasnexus/pgaf.

Wisst ihr noch nicht, in welche Session ihr um 11 Uhr gehen wollt? Dann kommt doch zur Session "CLS Methoden II" in Hörsaal D3!

Neben Janina Jacke zu Argumentvisualisierung und Nora Ketschik zu Netzwerkanalyse wird dort auch Julia Dudar aus einem Trierer @tcdh Projekt "Beyond Words" sprechen: "Exploring Measures of Distinctiveness: An Evaluation Using Synthetic Texts".

While looking for a reason why quite standard #genome #annotation pipeline failed I discovered a 159 000 AA long ORF in Augustus output. Yes, you read this right that's 477K of #repeats without any stop codons. I just need to understand what I hate more - RepeatModeler, Augustus, or this group of organisms.

PS there are at least 10 more >100K AA. FML.

Does anyone know of a tutorial/guide that I could use to set someone up for marking up documents digitally while #reading?

Here's what I mean:
I have a lot of students who only/primarily read digitally. They don't have printers, typically won't print out sources.

I've learned to work with that in a lot of ways, but *in class* we mark up sources on paper regularly, and I encourage students to take this action and apply it in their own reading at home. So there's a disconnect between the physical practice in the classroom and how some students are likely to do things at home.

I have all sorts of annotation tools for digital stuff, and notetaking tools that include PDF markup tools, but what I'm looking for is a guide that sets someone up for doing digital scribbling naturally, just as part of everyday reading for coursework: the best software to use, but also best practices, ways to make it more natural, easier.

Does anything like that exist?
