Wir erleben eine neue Welle des Antisemitismus bei uns im Land. Diese Bundesregierung und ich sagen diesem Antisemitismus den Kampf an. Wir werden das nicht dulden – auch nicht im Gewand der vermeintlichen Freiheit der Kunst, der Kultur und der Wissenschaft.

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

Grant terminations have grabbed the headlines and have seen legal action, but even more damaging to the US research enterprise has been the massive decrease in research grants issued by federal agencies NIH: -57% in the number of awards and -63% in value compared to FY24
