Problem of science is corrupted funding, toxic environment, mafia-like organizations and practices, exploitation, widespread corruption.

The current amount of bad science is due only to that. Even before reaching mainstream media, of which I don’t care. Unmanageable excess of meaningless published work is just a side effect of all above. Clearly it cannot change from inside, as current system selects only those who agree or compromise.

A revolution must come from outside. Tools and platforms like arxiv, github, hugging face are already demonstrating that alternative way of working exists, better ways to spread science and facilitate collaboration, increasing quality. Unfortunately they do not currently represent a real alternative outside niche fields, were quality, reproducibility and speed of evolution are critical. But also alternative tools such these can alleviate a minimal part of the huge problems.

I am honestly curious too see how “scientific” system will evolve, because it will. Because as it is now it is doomed to miserably continue falling down even further…
