Just like the horse whisperer, but with more pages. Helping researchers succeed.
About us
The Thesis Whisperer blog and social channels are dedicated to the topic of doing a PhD and being an academic in the neo-liberal precarious academy that we (kinda) love. I work at The Australian National University, but on the side I run the blog, do podcasts and run workshops for universities on academic writing, research communications and employability.

New On The Reg episode is up on Youtube! https://lnkd.in/d8E8nfZT
What is 'AI SEO' and should researchers be worried about it? In this YouTube version of On The Reg, I talk to Jason Downs, Ph.D. about how ChatGPT has become the biggest referrer to the Thesis Whisperer blog. I did some research on how ChatGPT 'decides' on authoritative sources. We might be seeing a new form of 'research impact' emerging... Is this a fresh horror, where we perform for yet more algorithms, or is it surprisingly good news for researchers? You might be surprised by our conclusions! https://lnkd.in/d3fnrTX8 https://lnkd.in/d3fnrTX8

I finally crawled out of my writing slump - AI is sending lots of people to my blog. What does that mean for us as researchers?
Things have been a bit shitty for me in the last couple of months, but at least I reconnected with my writing. This one is about the emerging trend of AI search engine optimisation and research impact: https://lnkd.in/guXyBJK9

"... boredom is a coping strategy that kicks in when your brain is not being “fed” enough, kind of like food cravings. Until I started taking GLP1 argonists, I had a lot of “food noise”. Maybe boredom is a form of “brain noise” that you have to learn to manage while doing a PhD? I know that doing one for three years hugely improved my own capacity to stay with a task, to the point where it feels like a superpower sometimes. But does this superpower have continuing value?" https://lnkd.in/e8R7j4Q2
