It kinda needs to happen in a lot of ways. I like academia on, like, a conceptual level, but "publish or perish" and the reproducibility crisis are imo signs of a deeply entrenched problem and I am not convinced it can be solved by reform. The breakdown of liberal academia is probably as inevitable and necessary as the breakdown of capitalism and liberalism.

LLMs would just make the reproducibility crisis much worse.

Definitely. I wouldn't be shocked if they play a role in the failure of liberal academia.
