Dorothea Zwölfer (sie)<p>Forschung, Publikationen (Elsevier) und peinliche Pannen: &gt;&gt;[...] Das geht aus dem Statement der Redaktion des Journals of Human Evolution (JHE) hervor, das auf dem Blog RetractionWatch veröffentlicht wurde. Das Vorgehen des Wissenschaftsverlags Elsevier, der das JHE herausgibt, widerspreche fundamental dessen Ethos, schreibt die Redaktion dort. Außerdem kritisiert sie die hohen Abogebühren des Magazins. Laut RetractionWatch handelt es sich bereits um den zwanzigsten solchen Massenrücktritt bei einem Forschungsmagazin seit 2023.[...] wird der Schritt vor allem mit Änderungen an der Struktur und den Zuständigkeiten begründet, die Elsevier durchgesetzt habe. Kritisiert werden aber auch Eingriffe in den Produktionsprozess, die "regelmäßig" Mehrarbeit verursacht hätten. Als Beispiel heißt es, Elsevier habe im Herbst 2023 ohne Rücksprache oder eine vorherige Information eine KI-Technik zur Überarbeitung der Artikel eingeführt. Die habe Schreibweisen und sogar bereits freigegebene Artikel wieder geändert. Das sei für das Magazin "höchst peinlich" gewesen, die Behebung der Probleme habe Monate [...] &lt;&lt;<a href="https://www.heise.de/news/Hoechst-peinliche-Einfuehrung-von-KI-Redaktion-von-Wissenschaftsmagazin-kuendigt-10223994.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.heise.de/news/Hoechst-peinliche-Einfuehrung-von-KI-Redaktion-von-Wissenschaftsmagazin-kuendigt-10223994.html</a><span><br></span><a href="https://federation.network/tags/Elsevier" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Elsevier</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/Forschung" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Forschung</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/Publikation" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Publikation</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/KIEinsatz" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KIEinsatz</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/Mehrarbeit" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mehrarbeit</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/Genauigkeit" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Genauigkeit</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/AI" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/LLM" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LLM</a> <a href="https://federation.network/tags/KI" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KI</a><span><br></span><a href="https://sueden.social/@BlumeEvolution" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@BlumeEvolution@sueden.social</a><span> <br></span><a href="https://mastodon.social/@queerwiki" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@queerwiki@mastodon.social</a><span> <br></span><a href="https://queer.party/@scatty_hannah" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@scatty_hannah@queer.party</a></p>
