It's the second time in a few hours that I see a post about AI-written articles published in an Elsevier journal. Maybe I'm not super worried about these specific papers (since the journals are also kinda irrelevant), but I'm worried about all the ones we're not seeing. And I fear that the situation is only going to get worse while AI improves, especially regarding images. The peer review system is not ready to address all of this

There are so many different journals out there it's hard to keep track of which ones are actually reputable anymore.

Almost need some overarching scientific body that can review and provide ratings for different journals to be able to even cite from the information within or something.

Like science and nature would be S-tier, whereas this journal should be F-tier apparently and people shouldn't even be allowed to cite articles found within it for their own papers.
