fetched live from OpenAlex

A famous rock anthem of the 1980s by the group U2, entitled I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For , had been released the year before I was born. However, contrary to the song's title, I did manage to find a job. As a fresh PhD graduate, I lived the challenges and struggles that graduate students face on a daily basis. Graduate school could be one of the most stressful (but also one of the most rewarding) periods of a young adult's life. Speaking to my peers, I realize that all of them are worried about their long-term employment projections. Without a concrete plan, most of us resort to the traditional route, including 1 or 2 postdocs, in hopes for a miracle, which is usually a tenure-track academic position. But, we know that these positions are scarce and very difficult to obtain. Many of us enter graduate school as naive and ambitious students who seem ready to tackle the world's most pressing problems. Unfortunately, we usually end up with a turbulent landing. The reality is …

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
