In this talk, Serge Horbach will explore the usage of GenAI for research purposes. Based on research among Danish researchers, he will describe how GenAI is currently being used, and how researchers perceive its usage in terms of ethics and integrity. Subsequently, the talk will zoom in more closely on the publishing system, describing how the development of GenAI tools is increasingly impacting the peer review and editorial process, as well as having implications for the political economy of publishing. Through this case study, implications for research governance and other current developments, such as the open science movement, will be discussed.
