     @mrundkvist "In fall of 2023, for example, without consulting or informing the editors, Elsevier initiated the use of Al during production, creating article proofs devoid of capitalization of all proper nouns (e.g., formally recognized epochs, site names, countries, cities, genera, etc.) as well italics for genera and species." 💀
