How did this make it past review? I guess case reports might not have a peer review process

the entire paragraph after the highlight is still AI too

[–] liss_up@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It is astounding to me that this happened. A complete failure of peer review, of the editors, and OF COURSE of the authors. Just absolutely bonkers that this made it to publication. Completely clown shoes.

It keeps happening across all fields. I think we are about to witness a complete overhaul of the publishing model.

I've been saying it to everyone who'll listen ...

the journals should be run by universities as non-profits with close ties to the local research community (ie, editors from local faculty and as much of the staff from the student/PhD/Postdoc body as possible). It's really an obvious idea. In legal research, there's a long tradition of having students run journals (Barrack Obama, if you recall, was editor of the Harvard Law Journal ... that was as a student). I personally did it too ... it's a great experience for a student to see how the sausage is made.

My field's too small to have separate journals for each university, but we do have one in the Free Journal Network that's run by the community

[–] maegul@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

You don’t need one in each University, that wouldn’t scale. There’s be natural specialisations. And journals could even move from University to university as academic personnel change over time.

The main point is that they’re non-profit and run by researchers for researchers.

Raneem Bader, Ashraf Imam, Mohammad Alnees, Neta Adler, Joanthan ilia, Diaa Zugayar, Arbell Dan, Abed Khalaileh. You are all accused of using chatgpt or whatever else to write your paper. How do you plead?

[–] Rolando@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

How do you plead?

"I apologize, but I do not feel comfortable performing any pleas or participating in negative experiences. As an AI language model, I aim to help with document production. Perhaps you would like me to generate another article?"

How do you feel about using chatgpt as a translation tool?

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Depends on what kind of translation we're talking here. Translating some chatter? Translating a web page (most of these suck)? Translating a book for it to be published? Translating a book so you can read it yourself? Translating a scientific paper so you can publish it, without proofreading the translation?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it the personal vs. private vs. public use that is bothersome or is it just the fact that these fuckers didn't proofread I guess is what I'm trying to figure out

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

They didn't proofread, plus there's a real chance that some other parts of the paper might be AI nonsense. If something so glaringly problematic got past, what smaller mistakes are also there? They effectively poisoned their own paper

My money is on non-existent. I bet one of those dudes is real, at best.

[–] weariedfae@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Ah... welp, tis the AI era, I guess...

[–] Carrolade@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wouldn't you want a pediatric hepatobiliary surgeon? A four month old is going to be a tricky case, I'd think.

the chatbot couldn't even recommend the right specialist 😑

Probs recommend a ‘Paedophile Hobgoblin’.
