Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate the potential acceptance of AI-written and reviewed preprints in bibliometric practices.
  • Analysis of ethical considerations regarding AI-generated content in academia
  • Review of bibliometric acceptance criteria
  • Examination of indexing policies in scientific databases
  • AI-generated content faces ethical scrutiny regarding its citation in academic literature
  • Potential for rejection by journals despite presence on preprint servers
  • Impact on the future acceptance of AI-written materials in major databases remains uncertain

Abstract

Abstract The preprint server aiXiv allows documents to be authored and/or peer-reviewed exclusively by generative AI (GAI). Journal editors may find themselves in an ethical bind—either embracing preprints and GAI, or sanctioning them, including by banning the citation of GAI-generated knowledge. Will GAI-generated or GAI-reviewed content become indexed in major scientific databases, including in peer-reviewed articles citing it?
