I had a friend who would interrupt the teacher to ask questions about wormholes and then fail the mid-term because he couldn't rearrange Ohm's Law for voltage.
I haven't spoken to him since graduation, but I see his type all over Twitter.
Despite the cigarette industry being so big, why have we seen so little innovation in the field? Why don’t we have like cigs embedded with caffeine and ozempic?
Holy shit… this might be the most unreal academic-writing upgrade I’ve ever seen 🤯
A team from NUS just dropped PaperDebugger an in-editor, multi-agent system that lives inside Overleaf and rewrites your paper with you in real time.
Not copy-paste. Not a sidebar chatbot.
Actual agentic editing inside your LaTeX editor.
Here’s why this is insane 👇
→ You highlight a messy paragraph, and it launches a full critique + rewrite pipeline
→ Returns clean before–after diffs like Git, then patches your document instantly
→ Runs Reviewer, Enhancer, Scoring, and Researcher agents in parallel
→ Uses Kubernetes pods to scale multi-agent reasoning inside the editor
→ Taps an MCP toolchain for literature search, reference lookup, and section-level enhancement
Deep research mode is even crazier:
It pulls relevant arXiv papers, summarizes them, compares your method against them, and generates citation-ready tables… all inline while you're writing.
It’s basically a mini committee of reviewers embedded in your document rewriting, critiquing, sourcing, and polishing without ever breaking flow.
If this scales, Overleaf stops being an editor… and becomes a full AI-assisted research environment.
Since because of the collab there's gonna be a lot of new people who need to quickly familiarize themselves with the Abyssal Hunters events and story I thought I'd put a guide together
