It’s surprising this still needs to be said, but I see so much of it around, often from platforms promoting ethics or integrity, and yet they still use this unethical slop. So weird how far GenAi has infiltrated and persisted when it should have been dismissed long ago

Facebook memories reminding me that it was 3 years ago to the day that we launched the new @easeeditors.bsky.social design, logo, colour scheme and strategic plans. 36 months later, so far so good I think.

I'm delighted to share our opinion on #papermills published in Nature. Science is flooded with papers from paper mills.Certain steps can be taken, but this is a challenge that neither universities nor journals are ready to face.Some use paper mills to their advantage. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Indeed. I think they’re absolutely atrocious, and I consider that an overestimation of their reliability. I can’t imagine thinking they’re remotely useful.

I think part of the problem of the whole AI slop jockey culture is that its founded by sealioning reply guy tech bros,who think hounding people with repeated questioning as a superiority competition is perfectly reasonable and civil way to be - instead of being thoughtfully inquisitive

I suppose if you're a journal that allows the use of GenAI text and images you'll sting yourself on the criteria of publishing articles 'so conspicuously flawed that a journal with peer reviewers and an attentive editor would reject them' without anyone having to submit a dedicated paper. #zoinks

You'd have hoped the massive rat appendage paper would have got around enough for journal editors to know not to let GenAI images anywhere near research publications...but seems not. This Elsevier journal is full of them: www.sciencedirect.com/journal/euro...

I'm looking for musicians, artists, writers, filmmakers, etc. who are passionate about translating science to a broader audience. The field is at the intersection of geoscience, paleo, climate, biology, and conservation. This is a funded opportunity. Tag your favorite STEAM folks, please!

This will be a fun and interactive session for journal editors and managers. Need to tidy up a couple of spreadsheets for this, to make them presentable in public If you're interested in coming and have something specific you'd like me to show or check out, let me know.

Done this....and the Nature survey too. Nature one is pretty quick and simple. This one is more in depth, and more focused on comparative aspects between BSky and Twitter.

Great article @eggletonkim.bsky.social. Well worth a read if you’re in the frontlines of journal management, or have an interest in research publishing and wonder why the industry makes researcher jump through certain hoops, among other things!
