#ArXiv is cracking down on #AI #slop and will only allow initial submissions based on recommendations from established ArXiv authors.

"Until now, someone wanting to submit to arXiv for the first time only needed an email address affiliated with a reputable academic or research institution, such as a university. But a rule instituted on 21 January now requires first-time posters to be endorsed by an established arXiv author in their own field. People who have previously posted in the same disciplinary section of arXiv do not need an endorsement.
The move is an attempt to clamp down on a rising tide of fraudulent submissions, says University of Amsterdam astronomer Ralph Wijers, chair of the arXiv editorial council. A large fraction, he says, are generated with artificial intelligence (AI). The new rule is “mostly to try and discourage very junior, unskilled people from trying to get something started by sending some rubbish to arXiv,” he says."

Is there a method to exclude certain paper types in #OpenAlex? For example, I would like to exclude #preprints from #arXiv.

@adamshostack @vardi @tychotithonus I believe our publications should not be in the hand of a single institution. #arXiv, #OpenResearchEurope (https://open-research-europe.ec.europa.eu/) or even better a distributed/federated repository run by universities would be a better solution. In terms of editing, at least in CS, publishers don’t add value but friction (it’s outsourced to underpaid workers who add unnecessary mistakes and are impossible to communicate with), so this step can probably discarded. Indexing is still largely controlled by the big publishers ( #scopus), so we need open alternatives (such as #dblp).

"Cornell Tech has received more than $7 million from Schmidt Sciences and NASA to upgrade arXiv, an open-access research repository of more than 2.8 million articles. "

It's great news for arXiv. I'm just wondering why they want actually move to the cloud:

"finish migrating to cloud infrastructure"

NREN are providing access for educational networks, I hope the cloud mentioned there is operated by a NREN operator.

"Major #AI labs, including OpenAI, Meta, and Anthropic, continue to innovate significantly, yet their innovations remain largely proprietary… #Konwinski argued that for ideas to truly flourish, they need to be freely exchanged and discussed with the larger academic community. He pointed out that generative AI emerged as a direct result of the #Transformer architecture, a pivotal training technique introduced in a freely available research paper [ #OpenAccess in #arXiv]."

#arXiv will no longer accept #CcomputerScience review papers unless they’re already accepted elsewhere. The reason: too many low-quality and #AI-generated submissions.
