"I'm fairly convinced that the whole thing, top to bottom, is just vibe coding,"
"At a minimum, I help review methodology and experimental design in proposals, and I read and comment on full paper drafts before submission."
Kevin Zhu, a recent UC Berkeley computer science graduate, claims to have supervised or authored 113 AI papers this year, with 89 scheduled for presentation at a top AI conference. Zhu runs Algoverse, a paid mentoring company that pairs high-school students with research projects and charges $3,325 for a selective 12-week program that includes help submitting work to conferences. Projects covered diverse applications, including locating nomadic pastoralists, evaluating skin lesions, and translating dialects. Critics including Berkeley professor Hany Farid call the papers low-quality and describe the work as "vibe coding." Zhu says he reviews methodology and drafts and that projects are team endeavors.
