I'm far less cruel than this professor as I let my students wipe their eyes on the exam paper

Hey, Reviewer 2! Wake up.

🤖 So #ChatGPT wrote the first sentence of this @ElsevierConnect article. Any other parts of the article too? How come none of the coauthors, Editor-in-Chief, reviewers, typesetters noticed? How can this happen with regular peer-review? https://t.co/C4vX317zYV

For those keeping score at home, this is the fourth research misconduct scandal at Harvard in just one month.

-Claudine Gay resigned Jan 2 after half of her work was found to contain plagiarized material.
-A couple week later, Dana Farber, a Harvard teaching hospital, retracted or corrected 37 papers by its top executives.
-Earlier this week, Harvard chief diversity officer Sherri Ann Charleston was accused of plagiarism and data fraud.
-And now, a top Harvard neuroscientist has been accused of falsifying data in 21 different papers.

One of the VPs screwed up so now we need everyone in the college to take a new online training module.

Are you using an LLM to help write reviews?

[Grumpy Reviewer @GrumpyJReviewer]

Uh oh.

If you think that rattling off quotes from Greek philosophers is the right way to do a land acknowledgement, then maybe you're not the right person to do it.

Inhale some helium before reading #Reviewer2's comments out loud.

[Grumpy Reviewer @GrumpyJReviewer]

Gotta be bad when even Reviewer 2 can't be bothered to read your paper.

[Steve Wechsler, DPT, PhD @SteveWechslerPT]

Manuscript rejected after 3 months because the journal couldn’t find ONE single reviewer. I hear this is an increasingly common issue across journals.

Academics, if we’re not supporting each other to move our fields forward, what are we even doing?
