This should be no news. But this is news unless more academicians own up to using GPT for their research work!

Not only are the grant-application system broken, the entire publishing enterprise system is broken.

Now, researchers can quite easily get ChatGPT to improve the writing, which is ironically probably not read by real humans. And the whole cycle continues.

I have seen even articles introductions written by ChatGPT. Now the lack of work from peer reviewers is coming out to the light. We will need to be more careful with what we read.

Thank you for this text, good to see colleagues from the academy talking about this here in Hive.
