In April, two members of our research group were featured in interviews:
Dorothea Strecker, who has been studying shadow libraries for many years, was interviewed by the Norwegian newspaper Klassekampen (Stormyren Larsen and Ugelstad Aas 2025). The interview was prompted by the investigation “The Unbelievable Scale of AI’s Pirated-Books Problem” published in The Atlantic (Reisner 2025).
Heinz Pampel was interviewed for the @mediasres program on Deutschlandfunk (deutschlandfunk.de 2025). The topic was the AI strategies of academic publishers. The interview was triggered by Politico’s announcement of a Policy Intelligence Assistant (Cooke 2025). We’re pleased about the interest in our research!
Further information about our research group can be found on our official website.
