"was not detected by the authors....".... BULLSHIT.

The author was chatGPT. At least of that phrase. the claimed-author... used chatGPT. There's zero justifiable excuse for the author to be totally unaware. they "wrote" it, after all.

The scary part is the editors, copyeditors and the reviewers not catching this. If they're not catching casual LLM wording, how are they to be counted on to make sure the science behind the paper is good and valid?

They do not include the peer reviewers in their list of people who missed it. Which means that either the peer reviewers did pick it up and for some reason it didn't get addressed (unlikely) or this was a straight up pay-to-play and whoever runs that particular bit of the racket for Elsevier fucked up.

No shit it's bullshit. It's a meme about AI text in a research paper that makes fun of Elsevier by having ChatGPT write an apology template for Elsevier.

It wasn't the authors. Well, not the authors of the paper. It was the author of the publisher's introduction to the paper.

The publishers do not write any part of the paper.

…was inadvertently outsourced on Fiverr… and people would shit but half the world seems ok with this shit.

Edit: I learned how to spell Fiverr today.

so they just hired a shadow writer. And the shadow writer used chat GPT.

because that makes the excuse valid, right?

My man, it's literally a ChatGPT reply window. It's a joke! :)
