This is scary. Also, who is it benefiting? I think the journals may have to start meeting authors over a video call to validate submissions. Or academia will have to adopt digital signatures.
This is a FRAUDULENT paper, AI-generated. My name was used as an author and I had nothing to do with it, never saw it until today e-pubmed.co.uk/journals/dig...
The "Editors" Angelo Rossi Mori, David Mensah, and Zarnie Khadjesari and this "Journal" should be reported.

I'll be at #AACR26, giving a talk on accessing an interpretable deep learning model of palbociclib response on two real-world clinical cohorts. Let's catch up if you are attending.

I gave an internal talk at UCSD last year regarding "novelty" in computer science research. In it I "debunked" some of the myth people seem to have about what is good research in computer science these days. People seemed to like it, so I thought I should share.
