ChatGPT has revolutionized scientific article writing, to the point that anyone can write an article. paper. Not only scientists who have already published many articles, such as the famous chemist Rafael Luque Álvarez de Sotomayor (King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia), who boasts of publishing even more thanks to ChatGPT (he already has 48 articles in 2024 and published 128 articles in 2023, according to Google Scholar). Also people who have more face than back and who publish articles written by ChatGPT, with small edits by their own hands. A good example is Dr. Som Biswas (University of Tennessee Health Sciences (UTHSC), USA), who published 30 items About the use of ChatGPT in various fields of science, all written by ChatGPT, all of them. I'm not saying that, the author himself says that in the acknowledgments (“The author acknowledges that this article was generated by ChatGPT. Edited by the author“or something like that). I found out thanks to “Can anyone write a scientific paper now?” Publishing with integrity, June 27, 2024 (I recommend following the Publish with Integrity account on X, @fake_journals); And since it couldn't be otherwise, the anonymous author of this article claims to have used ChatGPT. Incidentally, Biswas deleted his Google Scholar profile so that his embarrassment wouldn't be seen (the figure is taken from Wayback Machine), there must be a reason.
It’s clear that most of the references cited in these articles are the product of the hallucination of their author, the AI ChatGPT. How did they manage to pass peer review? Were these articles peer reviewed? How did these articles manage to sneak into prestigious journals? Let me highlight some of the ChatGPT articles signed by this pediatric radiologist. Indeed 446 quotes (According to Google Scholar) Som Biswas, “ChatGPT and the Future of Medical Writing,” Radiology 307:e223312 (February 2, 2023), doi: https://doi.org/10.1148/radiol.223312; magazine Rays Its impact index is 12.1 in JCR 2023, which is Q1 (2/204) in its category. Most cited article (480 quotes) is Som S. Biswas, “The Role of GPT Chat in Public Health,” Annals of Biomedical Engineering 51:868–869 (March 15, 2023), doi: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10439-023-03172-7; Due to the success of this journal, which has an impact index of 3.0 (JCR 2023), i.e. Q3 (62/122), it has also published other articles, such as Som S. Biswas, “Potential Use of Chat GPT in Global Warming,” Annals of Biomedical Engineering 51: 1126–1127 (01 March 2023), doi: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10439-023-03171-8with 255 quotes (By the way, what does climate change have to do with biomedical engineering?) Wasim Biswas, “Success is Cool: Can ChatGPT Take the USMLE?” Annals of Biomedical Engineering 51:1885–1886 (May 8, 2023), doi:10.1007/2023-08-08 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10439-023-03224-ywith 11 quotes. and I won't bother you anymore (if you want to do that, you can.) Dive into more articles).
Some idiot posted trash that needs to be removed (to retreat). I wonder how the scientists who have published in these scientific journals feel after so much effort? Of course you will tell me that these articles by Som Biswas are not like that. Leaves fetén, are comments and notes addressed to the editor, which are subject to lenient peer review. But for the journal, they are citable articles, which count towards its impact index. The articles that adorn Biswas’s (and ChatGPT’s) resume, which could allow him to advance in his scientific career (although ChatGPT doesn’t need to advance much further, there are already 5,258 articles with ChatGPT in their titles According to Scopus). Will Biswas’ colleagues and his manager know about the ChatGPT articles he publishes?
