> in a post-truth world where the internet is full of non-obvious ai-generated mostly-but-not-quite-true information, academic journals should be more important than ever; unfortunately, the companies that run them had already become complacent and negligent long before LLMs came on the scene.

There will have to be institutional adaptation to this, but it will be painful and I think the end-result will be worse that what we had pre-LLM. Things will be much more closed, inaccessible, and based on who you know. The openness of the last ~30 years will end.
