ingorohlfing , 1 month ago Elsevier unveils Scopus #AI for research reviews | Times Higher Education (THE) https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/elsevier-launches-scopus-ai-bot-literature-reviews I couldn't find information about pricing, but it seems safe to assume it is not for free. Meaning institutions have to pay for a tool that likely has been 1/ @academicchatter

mcp , 1 month ago @ingorohlfing @academicchatter If scientific authors have given away their copyright to Elsevier for free for decades, and their institutions have bought back their texts at outrageous prices, why shouldn't they accept paying similarly outrageous prices for their brand-new bullshit generator (a.k.a #AI or #SALAMI)? https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/elsevier-launches-scopus-ai-bot-literature-reviews

sposadelvento , 1 month ago @mcp @ingorohlfing @academicchatter I wonder if the research done by community should be available to be parsed by an AI. Maybe it would be better just open for humans.
