The AI checked 163 co-author profiles for me and found no Mastodon links

He asked the AI to check a researcher's co-authors on ORCID for possible Mastodon links. The AI checked 163 co-authors, 120 of whom had ORCID profiles, and found none.

How it works

  1. He asks the AI to check the co-authors' ORCID profiles
  2. The AI goes through 163 co-authors, 120 with ORCID
  3. It finds zero Mastodon links

Why it’s worth knowing

Checking 163 profiles by hand would take an afternoon. The AI came back with a count and a clean zero.
