The AI Series is a popular initiative. Of course because many of you are sponges that want to get as much information, guidance and critical mass on how to use the Large Language Models. And the first three episodes in the series have been showered in enthusiasm since my dear guests Rita and Kristjan have very actively incorporated the tools in their workflow as proposals preparers.

Now, we need some critical voices on this series and we agreed in the last episode to try to get a proposal evaluator and an outspoken critic about the LLMs. So, here it is: independent consultant and Horizon Europe evaluator Maria Daniela Angione and Erasmus+ proposal and project expert Daiana Huber shares their concerns and critical points-of-view in a very nice discussion about the Chatbot-regime.

In the first part of the double episode Maria Daniela is giving an insight into the evaluator perspective on this development and Rita and I had a chance to ask into how the evaluators navigate this new landscape.

In the second part criticism rams up with Erasmus+ expert Daiana Huber sharing why she considers the LLMs a mirage and why she thinks it makes proposals and projects less worth. And then we have a lovely discussion about it! This is fantastic!
