As someone outside of academia, seeing the phrase only 34 papers feels like being shot in the face

Honestly if I see someone who publishes like 200+ papers I would just be wondering… What the hell did they contribute? They’re churning shit out the door so either they weren’t involved much and did the bare minimum to put their name on the paper or it was mostly inconsequential and non-impressive shit that you could churn out in a few weeks.

There’s a guy at IBM who has thousands of patents with his name on.
He works in the department that helps people write patents.

It really depends on the field. I will talk about fields I know: fundamental math - one paper every 2-3 years is a good pace, every paper 50-100 pages. AI - a paper a month is the usual, with a hard cap at 10 pages, often less.

They could also be directing thesis. They’ll appear in their students papers on the topic. My professor was incresibly useful in mine, and I know he does this a lot.
