Description

Featured paper: Delving into LLM-assisted writing in biomedical publications through excess vocabulary
Is AI secretly writing more scientific papers than we realize? In this episode, we dive into groundbreaking research that reveals how ChatGPT and other AI tools are quietly transforming scientific literature. Discover how researchers used "excess vocabulary" analysis to uncover that at least 13.5% of biomedical papers in 2024 show AI influence—a shift even bigger than COVID's impact on publishing. We explore which countries and journals are leading the AI adoption, why words like "delves" and "underscores" are red flags, and what this means for the future of scientific integrity. Join us for a data-driven detective story that's reshaping how we think about AI in academia.*Disclaimer: This content was generated by NotebookLM and has been reviewed for accuracy by Dr. Tram.*
