Kind of throws the whole @natureportfolio.nature.com Scientific Reports review process in question

Nature Scientific Reports is the third most cited journal in the world smdh

Hello @springernature.com - you’ve just published another bit of nonsense in Scientific Reports 🙁

Infographic with AI slop published in Nature Scientific Reports

"Runctitiononal features"? "Medical fymblal"? "1 Tol Line storee"? This gets worse the longer you look at it. But it's got to be good, because it was published in Nature Scientific Reports last week: www.nature.com/articles/s41... h/t @asa.tsbalans.se

'Australia’s major research universities have warned that declining support for the humanities could threaten the country’s ability to operate in its region.' 1/3

Australia - Nathan Hobby, Laura French, Catherine Gillard, Van Ikin, 2025

Thanks for the mention in this wonderful summary of the year that was in Australian literature and criticism, @nathanhobby.bsky.social et al!

comic strip with call and response text. who are we? CEOs what do we want? AI! AI to do what? We don't know! When do we want it? Right now!

every company in 2025

Amused to view an academic article and see that the journal it's in abbreviates its own name to "New Global Stud"

(it's New Global Studies. The abbreviation barely saves any space at all! But it's funny so I'll allow it)

Nice to see my first repost of my paper!

Never mind where I grew up; nothing from there can beat Canberra's Bus Safe Rap: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV9_...

This epistolary novel could have been an email

Somebody (@jonpiccini.bsky.social) *did* commission an expert on the history of invasive species in Australia (me) to write about this! Read it here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Even real Nazis were getting these burned off by US doctors lol

Congratulations Noreen! Well deserved!

can't believe we got to the stage of human history where we've just placidly and collectively decided to stop learning stuff

Why read Lacan, why learn all these super-subtle forms of ideological critique, when the big guy is out there posting diarrhoea jet fighter videos. What are we doing here.

Good morning!

What I like about that paper (though it's certainly a weird one for me) is that many of the authors disagree about the responses to genAI. (I think invigilation of at least 50% of assessment is the only practical response atm.) We all, however, agree that AI detectors are bunkum

And, at this point, any teacher still using whole-language theory to teach reading (including hybrid forms) is either a fool or a villain to be perfectly honest. Schools and universities have plenty of fools and villains. That isn't an argument for whole-language or AI detectors

I mean, my name's on it and I'm not backwards in coming forward with my opinions about the problems with genAI text. Did colleagues use genAI for assistance? I don't know, and that's the point. I have no way of knowing. You want human writing? Invigilate it

Great paper outlining the fundamental flaws of using AI detection tools in educational institutions.

Any student accused by one of these tools should submit the paper as part of their case.

Any university using the tool is asking to get sued, with this paper being submitted as evidence.
