Bringt KI die Wissenschaft in Gefahr?

Es gibt immer mehr gefälschte Studien und Fake-Publikationen - und das sogar in Fachzeitschriften. Künstliche Intelligenz macht das Fälschen immer leichter.

Wie kann man Forschungsleistung fairer bewerten als mit Kennzahlen a la #Impactfactor & Co.? Am @bih_charite entwickelt Miriam Kip alternative Indikatoren und implementiert sie bspw. in Lebensläufen für Berufungsverfahren. Mario Rembold sprach mit ihr: https://www.laborjournal.de/rubric/essays/essays2025/e25_06.php

Damian Pattinson of @eLife (and my former boss at PLOS ONE) at The Royal Society's Future of Scientific Publishing conference describes the devastating effect on their submissions of Clarivate removing their Impact Factor due to their change in peer review model, then asks why other journals, including Science, don't renounce their own IFs.

@elduvelle Sure - let’s add to the problem of reproducibility (retraction rates are already much higher for high-impact journals, incl. Nature – Brembs et al 2013 "Deep impact: unintended consequences of journal rank." Frontiers in human Neuroscience) by adding AI peer reviewers and watch academic publishing enshittify further. #reproducibility #impactfactor #ScientificJournals

The killer quote! Prestigious institutions and prestigious journals drive irreproducibility in the life sciences - well, at least in this particular sample.

JEOS-RP continues from strength to strength.

🚀2024 Impact Factor = 3.2, up 68% from 2023.

🚀2024 CiteScore up by 9.1%, to 3.6.

A testament to the hard work of the authors, peer-reviewers and publishing team. We'll be celebrating at #EOSAM2025
