Abstract:
Purposes Based on a comprehensive synthesis of expert presentations delivered at the Fourth Symposium on Sci-Tech Journal Development, this study reviews the topic from a full research-lifecycle perspective. It systematically examines the current applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic publishing, identifies the key challenges encountered in practice, and analyzes potential future trajectories, with the aim of providing a reference for advancing the high-quality development of sci-tech journals empowered by AI. Methods Presentations from 15 experts were thematically clustered and reviewed according to 3 categories: current practical applications, challenges and countermeasures, and future development directions of AI in sci-tech journals. The key viewpoints of experts were reviewed from the perspective of the entire research process. Findings AI has been comprehensively applied across all stages of sci-tech journal publishing, including writing, manuscript evaluation, editorial processing and proofreading. However, challenges related to academic ethics, publishing quality, data security, and research fairness have emerged. Major publishers and some individual journal editorial offices had established AI usage guidelines, addressing potential risks by clarifying application boundaries and implementing disclosure mechanisms. Conclusions The development and adoption of AI had deeply permeated scientific research and academic publishing. Academic journals should actively embrace and systematically plan for AI integration by advancing its application across 6 dimensions: attitude, technology, system, team, service, and ethics.

摘要:
目的 对“第四届科技期刊发展学术研讨会”的专家报告进行详细梳理,从科研全流程视角出发,总结并分析学术出版中人工智能的应用现状、面临挑战与未来发展,为人工智能赋能科技期刊高质量发展提供参考。 方法 对15位专家的报告进行主题聚类,并按照人工智能在科技期刊中的实践应用现状、面临的各项挑战及应对方案、未来发展路向三类主题,从科学研究全流程出发,对报告专家的主要观点进行综述。 结果 人工智能已全面应用于科技期刊出版的各个环节,包括作者写作、稿件审议和编辑校对均已借助AI辅助功能开展工作。在此过程中,面临学术伦理、出版质量、数据安全和科研公平等挑战。大型出版商及部分单刊编辑部已制定人工智能使用规范,通过明确使用边界、建立披露机制等措施,应对人工智能使用带来的风险。 结论 人工智能技术的发展与使用已深入渗透至科学研究及学术出版的各个环节,学术期刊应积极拥抱并系统谋划,从态度、技术、制度、队伍、服务与伦理6个层面推进AI应用。
