    New AI tool identifies 1,000 'questionable' scientific journals

    Questionable scientific journals, or those that publish studies without proper vetting for a profit, are growing around the world. A new AI system automatically seeks them out.

      The AI made mistakes, according to the humans, flagging an estimated 350 publications as questionable when they were likely legitimate. That still left more than 1,000 journals that the researchers identified as questionable.

      That’s quite a large error rate.

        Wouldn’t it be easier to just compile a list of journals that are reputible?
