@ALETranslation: "Publishers can improve their approach to AI tool use and policy in the following eight ways:
1) Working together to create a global standard framework
2) Making sure guidelines are live and continuously updated
3) Setting up transparent inclusive governance

4) Encouraging experimentation and learning within individual organizations
5) Creating a risk register for different kinds of tools
6) Differentiating between different bucket categories and substantive versus non-substantive use

7) Defining who is in charge and whether authors can act as content generators, reviewers, or both
8) Considering the ability to monitor and enforce these policies"

"The BMGF is placing more value on early, open, and inclusive research dissemination. The method it is employing is to lead with the preprint, and de-prioritize – but not remove – the scholarly journal."

Exciting new bioRxiv pilot with @Science_Cast: AI-generated paper summaries at 3 levels (general -> expert) to increase accessibility. Click Automated Services in the dashboard to view these.
It's a pilot experiment, tweaks to come. We value feedback 😊

"Though it was clearly not the intention of cOAlition S to consolidate market power in the hands of a small number of large commercial organizations, this is an unfortunate result of forcing the market into a rapid state of change rather than allowing amore measured evolution."

R01 application was administratively withdrawn because we cited “Doe et al.” instead of using numerical citations. I understand it was our mistake and appreciate the need to anonymize, but why not check at the time of submission and give us a chance to correct? @NIH @NIHDirector.

Just a little explanatory thread on my latest preprint:
psyarxiv.com/6mbgv/
The focus is on paper mills: the commercial operations that sell authorship/articles/citations at scale, polluting the lilterature with fake or low-quality articles. /1
