“The federal government is going to try force a gambling company on Utah” is the sort of deranged conspiracy theory lunacy you read in the journals of guys defending polygamy in 1885 AND YET

A direct impact of LLMs in science. Journals are being overwhelmed by papers that use LLMs but do not really engage at all with existing literature or contextualize their results.
A new Editorial up at Research Notes from @publishing.aas.org. 🔭 Following a recent flood of AI-generated papers, we are changing our submission rules. I'm sure this will be the first of several as we try to keep RNAAS open and free, without being swamped.

wait wait wait - the tide is turning the other way. My journal is part of a large coalition of journals that won't accept AI papers. My @gsqjournal.bsky.social won't even accept AI-assisted papers. There could be some journals that do but they will not be prestige journals but like paper mills.
