New paper out: "Peer Review at the Crossroads"
I analyzed 4 peer review models from traditional gatekeeping to Publish-Review-Curate. Key finding: no single model is ideal, but PRC shows promise for transparency & accessibility.

There is an opportunity for further discussion with Sam on January 16, when Sam will present his book in a seminar organized by @cwtsnl.bsky.social.
The seminar is hybrid and is open to all.

⚖️ Who is best in place to regulate the use of research output for training generative AI systems?
In our new post, Dmitry Kochetkov explores this question and shows how generative AI is reshaping copyright and the future of scholarly publishing.

New preprint on arXiv: “Who Owns the Knowledge? Copyright, GenAI, and the Future of Academic Publishing”. I argue that training GenAI on scholarly outputs should not be treated as a fair use exception.

'Registered Revisions is a policy that activates when peer reviewers request new data or analyses. Instead of ad hoc revisions, authors draft a revision plan which, if approved, grants in-principle acceptance (IPA).'

I am happy to be the pioneer of versioning at @metaror.bsky.social
Intriguing and worth reading even if I find it hard to judge how meaningful is Ben’s Bridging Metric. Very much enjoyed the Hamming quote: “I cannot prove the cause-and-effect relationship; I can only observe the correlation”, which seems to me to apply to a lot of metascience questions! ;-)
I’ve just published a #PreprintReview of “Gaming the Metrics? Bibliometric Anomalies and the Integrity Crisis in Global University Rankings” on @prereview.bsky.social prereview.org/reviews/1577...
OOO NASA's Open Science 101 was updated - nice! This course is great for life and social scientists, not just earth/space scientists. Check it out! science.nasa.gov/open-science...

In a recent interview for China Social Sciences Daily, I critiqued how university rankings reduce education to a numbers game, ignoring teaching, social impact, and the unique DNA of each institution.
