ABSTRACT

To follow the research by Májovský et al., this letter draws further attention to the potential negative effect that ChatGPT and other AI technologies may have on the scientific peer review process. Areas of consideration include the pool of qualified reviewers, proliferation of fraudulent research, and acceptance and applications of ChatGPT. The advent of AI, with its immense potential, increases the need for an overhaul of the peer-review process.
