Scientific Publications in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into scientific publication processes raises a set of issues that require attention from both the academic community and scientific publishers. Despite the editorial policy of many journals, AI authorship remains a controversial issue that actualizes the problems of scientific ethics. The use of AI to check the spelling and grammar of text documents is virtually not questioned, as the embedding of such functions in computer programs is already routine. AI errors in bibliographic references require special attention for the design of reference lists. It is obvious that AI technologies can improve and influence the preparation of scientific publications. However, the efficiency of AI use will largely depend on the rapid response of the scientific community and publishers to new challenges to ensure the integrity and high quality of publications.
