80: Cites are not endorsements (with Sean Rife) - a podcast by Dan Quintana

We chat with Sean Rife, who the co-founder of scite.ai (https://scite.ai), a start-up that combines natural language processing with a network of experts to evaluate the veracity of scientific work.
Here's what we cover and links for a few things we mention* What is scite.ai?
* The Winnower (https://thewinnower.com)* Why is there no good (and free) plagiarism detector?
* Grobid (https://grobid.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Introduction/) - A machine learning library for extracting, parsing and re-structuring PDFs* Meta-analysis can prop up flawed bodies of literature
* The "Too meta (https://xkcd.com/1447/)" XKCD cartoon* What’s the end game for scite?
* The 80,000 hours game (https://80000hours.org/articles/can-you-guess/)* Spooner (http://spooner.lyceum.ws), a utility that allows authors of scientific publications to make their work available to the general public (probably) without violating publishing agreements
