Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

May 26, 2026 Cesar Hidalgo Why I Made a Journal for AI-Generated Papers May 26, 2026 Cesar Hidalgo By César A. Hidalgo Announcing a Journal for AI-Generated Papers (jaigp.org) was a bold move. Some loved it. Others thought it was a joke. But as the one building the journal, I should explain why.First, let’s start with what may be the most obvious reason. The use of AI in research is growing, but as a “dark” activity. Scholars are using AI more often and hallucinated references in legit outlets are becoming easier to find.Yet, this use of AI is not happening in the open. It is a “dark” activity in which AI-generated content is mixed with content generated by humans.

Excerpt limited to ~120 words for fair-use compliance. The full article is at Cesar A. Hidalgo.
