r/MachineLearning·low signal
After decades as a Cornell-hosted service, arXiv is establishing itself as an independent nonprofit with Simons Foundation support and is now hiring a CEO at ~$300K/year (288↑, 66cmts on r/MachineLearning). This is a significant governance change for the primary preprint server used by the entire ML research community. Independence could affect moderation policies, access models, and integration with downstream tools.
