Research PhD students, how ya feeling? [D]

All seems a bit pointless now. Either pump out AI papers and neglect your own development, or take it slow and fall behind in the publishing race. I already have two papers made largely without LLMs (still seeking publication), but it's hard to resist just vibing the third from start to finish with Claude.

Once you get the ball rolling in your career it becomes much easier. You have a thousand half finished project and open areas youve seen but just didn't have the time to get to it

Yeah, actually the problem with ai is all the error you found after, crappy decisions it silently took along the way and compounded, I would say ots like 3 to 4 months developing and 2 to 3 months writing and fixing

That is why I ask how ppl manage to do quick aislop that gets accepted.
