#ScienceDirect and #Elsevier clearly didn't review this #chemistry paper about #batteries. The intro starts with "Certainly, here is a possible introduction for your topic:".

This lack of oversight erodes #trust in #science. The paper needs to be retracted and the authors sanctioned immediately.

#GenerativeAI may have its uses in #academic #writing, but this is uncited #plagiarism and #dishonest claim of original work. The #AI and #LLM don't have an #author credit.

@inthehands That's a fair assessment and a thoughtful look at the language.

From my academic background in computer science, artificial intelligence traditionally relied on a more stringent definition than is being used in marketing materials being generated these days. I think most of my hostility to the term as popularly used today is that it is employed to sell "ooo shiny" junk to consumers, when that junk is not actually any better than the previous generation of junk.

@inthehands Yes, I'm getting tired of everything in the world being labeled as AI enhanced or AI enabled.

On top of that, the AI distinction has become almost meaningless to the point where AI often just means "uses computer."

Sorry, basic image processing is not AI. Spell check is not AI. Bang-bang thermostat controls are not AI.

Yes @peregrine57, I am always amused when people ask when #StarTrek went #woke, seemingly unaware the 1965 pilot featured female first officer #NumberOne in command while rescuing her captain. This swiftly followed by an Asian #astrophysicist and navigator in #Sulu, a professional Black woman in #Uhura who is not only #multilingual but both a capable #electronics technician and #starship #pilot, and Black #physician #MBenga who is well versed in multispecies #medicine. #IDIC #diversity
