@gierschner.bsky.socialbtw, this 👇scandalous RSC "review" has already a "Good Attention Score" ...after 7 people on X and Bluesky complained about it... doi.org/10.1039/D6MA...
Let's hope that in the future @rsc.org pays more attention to their "mission to advance excellence in the chemical sciences"
@dailybaltic.comPaper mills may influence what AI systems tell users #artificialintelligence #researchintegrity #Science
@gierschner.bsky.social...indeed, also chlorophyll, flavonoid, the "products" of the ESIPT process and trans-cis isomerization, all nonsense...
...authors mimicking science, cheap AI prompts, sloppy a/o corrupted peer review, careless editors, and the OA model, making publishers even more greedy

@laborjournal.bsky.socialLaut Studie gehört in 45 Prozent der untersuchten Journale mindestens ein Editor zugleich zu den produktivsten Autoren des eigenen Blatts. Das ist noch kein Missbrauch, aber ein Interessenkonflikt, der mehr Transparenz verlangt: 👉

@gierschner.bsky.socialThis 'Comprehensive Review' in @materialsadvances.rsc.org displays nonsense molecules, nonsense axes, nonsense processes 😮
Has the Royal Society of Chemistry lost its mind to publish this?

@gierschner.bsky.socialAgain papers citing already retracted papers:
here in ACS Applied
....Materials & Interfaces
doi.org/10.1021/acsa... Ref. 22
...Bio Materials
doi.org/10.1021/acsa... Ref. 5
ACS: not able/willing to run a simple search for "retracted" before publishing?
@digital-science.comAuthorship integrity is being tested like never before.
Our new white paper looks at what's driving the strain – and what publishers can do about it without losing human judgment.

@gierschner.bsky.socialHere we are: "The AI tools introduced fundamental errors, including incorrect content in all figures and 47 references" The authors "are retracting the paper to maintain the validity of the scientific record"
...how many papers like this are out there? #ResearchIntegrity
@kneopen.bsky.social🧩 A well-chosen prompt pattern is the difference between an AI output you trust and one you fact-check line by line.
This course catalogues 9 patterns from White et al.'s research, from question refinement to persona.
@drthomaslancaster.bsky.socialNo, an AI generated and formatted unsolicited email request to submit papers to your journal will not make me more likely to submit something #researchintegrity
@gierschner.bsky.socialexactly, 'not even wrong'... Pauli had a lucid mind; I'm always citing this in my seminars & courses on #ResearchIntegrity, as well as the other famous Pauli quote:
"I do not mind if you think slowly, but I do object when you publish more quickly than you think"
@citiprogram.orgThis week's titles include:
•Research Integrity Could Become the New Funding Edge
•When AI Directs Lab Experiments, Who Signs Off on Safety?
•DOJ Revises Justice Manual to Strengthen False Claims Act Enforcement

@gierschner.bsky.social...at least one of these radioactive perovskite papers is now retracted: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
well done, Michal: pubpeer.com/publications...
But, self-evidently, this should have never been published in the first place, "Scientific Reports"...
