As a PhD candidate doing AI research, and a former ML engineer, I am not sure what to think of the bombardment of new AI models and tools and if or how I should integrate them into my workflow. On the one hand, I am amazed and curious and excited to test them out. On the other hand, it’s overwhelming and I feel a certain pressure to use them, and a restlessness about (the future of) my way of working and the field at large.| Joris Baan
