It's the second time in a few hours that I see a post about AI-written articles published in an Elsevier journal. Maybe I'm not super worried about these specific papers (since the journals are also kinda irrelevant), but I'm worried about all the ones we're not seeing. And I fear that the situation is only going to get worse while AI improves, especially regarding images. The peer review system is not ready to address all of this
This practise is a remnant of the printing times. Papers would get accepted and then printed in a later issue. But once the online publishing started, this kind of was not necessary anymore. Which lead to online publication before print, but somehow still using the print date for the article because a lot of journals still have physical prints.
That said, I don't know if this journal does that and then if not it is simply stupid. They might do it because they limit "online" issues in size, like the printed ones. Which is idiotic if you don't actually print anything.
At least the AI saw personal medical info and Nope!'d out of that?
Being a lit review, it's not a referreed publication, so no one to call them out on their bullshit. Funny that the author didn't even bother reading their shit sandwich of a "review".
