– Data collection completed yesterday at 10am
– Prompts developed and validated by 1pm
– Classification of all responses, aggregation, and analysis by 4pm

We first took a random sample of 100 responses to identify reasons, develop categories, and write prompts. We then used the OpenAI API and some R code to classify each response.
The faster and cheaper GPT-3.5 model performed more reliably on these short texts than GPT-4.

We were surprised by a recent #Frontiers blog. They make derogatory statements, accuse us of data manipulation & mischaracterize our comms with them. 😔
Critiques of our work are welcome. Falsehoods about us and our work are not. Here we set the record straight. 1/7 #SciPub #AcademicSky #PeerReview
