Good news this week - I have just been invited to join the GPTZero ambassador programme and will be running a professional development session on ethical use of AI. Would you be interested in attending? P.S. GPTZero is one of the tools that we use to identify if text was created by AI or human - it's pretty advanced to the extent it can track which elements of the document were pasted and which were written.

I’m about to finalise the training programme for this community - this is your last chance to share your input. Tell me what aspects of academic publishing and building your expert profile would you like to develop.

Many of you are here to network but we don’t often know who is doing what - let’s change this: In a few words, please explain what is your core research area. Enjoy!

Let's try something different this week - rather than doing peer review for the journals, I feel like my time is better spent helping out members of this community. At this week's community session (Friday!), I'll review 2-3 paper drafts and offer feedback from an editor/reviewer perspective. Share your draft in the comments below or simply send it to me via direct message.

I've recently been approached by AnswerThis.io founders to test their updated AI-based literature review tools. I usually prefer to write my own literature reviews without AI support, as I learn more and gain unique insights when I do it myself. However, with the sheer volume of articles being published these days and tighter deadlines, I see how such tools can become increasingly valuable. I'll be testing this over the next few days and will share my thoughts with the community soon. However, there are a few exciting activities that I'm currently discussing with the AnswerThis team: 1. You can get a good-value annual plan via my affiliate link here: https://answerthis.io/?ref=drhanak 2. We're planning an exclusive workshop just for this community P.S. Let me know if such partnerships and collaborations are helpful!
