I hate how paper titles are worded like seo techniques.

Turn something into a metric and it will be misused. Ever always was

Attention is all you need!

Always has been.

This is a riff on the original "attention is all you need" paper, there has been a few of these lately

[Matthyze]

A few? A multitude.

Having a catchy title is great for short hand. If it didn’t have such a catchy name I probably wouldn’t remember Flush+Reload, Spectre, or even Attention is All You Need

On the one hand, sure, it's dumb.

But, on the other hand, it's hard to get researchers to read your paper, esp. in fast-moving areas. Every little thing might be the difference between reading the abstract or not. Reading the abstract might lead to reading the intro. And so on.

So, for better or worse, the competition for human eyeballs is real.

Ironically, in this case, "attention" is all that the authors want.
