Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere these days. The publishing industry is no exception.

Clever use of AI could be the modern-day solution to the skyrocketing submissions. Join Nikesh Gosalia and Dr Marie Soulière as they discuss the ethical use of AI tools to maintain publication quality in journals. While AI can promote research integrity by identifying plagiarism and image manipulation, it needs to be strategically integrated into the journal workflow to improve efficiency without worsening the editor's workload. By drawing on specific strategies used by Frontiers' AI Review Assistant (AIRA), Nikesh and Dr Soulière cover the key points pertinent to AI tools in the world of publishing, such as fostering trust among users, incorporating feedback to improve accuracy, and keeping accountability with human editors. Dr Soulière also touches upon an increasingly relevant concern– sophisticated fraud due to excessive information sharing – and shares tips on keeping up with new AI developments in publishing.

Dr Marie Soulière is the Head of Publishing Projects with Frontiers. She has a PhD in Chemical and Computational Biology, 12 publications, and several presentation awards. With her 10 years as a manager in the publishing industry and position as COPE Council member, she is a well-established figure in open access publishing.
