First, this scientific paper is throwing shade left and right. Did a Scot wrong them in some way?

Second, does this mean a healthy variety of Scottish dialects will be our secret weapon against AI surveillance?

I don’t think it’s a scientific paper. The first author is from cranberry-lemon university, not Carnegie-Mellon

I wasn't paying attention to that at all, hah. "William Wallace University"? Very on the nose. Had to search up "Cazique of Poyais", but that's a good ref too. Now I'm wondering what this is from.

*A quick search suggests it's from this book of satirical research papers.

I don’t know if the scholars at cranberry-lemon university studying interracial computer science are all that trustworthy
