Resumen

This article examines the growing trend of Artificial Intelligence (AI) generated manuscripts in academic publishing, specifically within the Journal of Sustainability Science and Management (JSSM). Drawing on decades of experience as seasoned reviewers, a concerning increase was observed in submissions that lack depth, critical thinking, and adherence to JSSM’s standards. Thus, this article advocates for a more rigorous preliminary evaluation by subject matter associate editors to ensure that manuscripts meet the required standards before proceeding to the peer-review stage. In particular, it highlights the significance of preserving the integrity and credibility of JSSM by rejecting AI-dependent manuscripts that fail to demonstrate genuine creativity and the higher-order thinking that reflects authors’ scholarly contributions.
