After weeks of correcting production errors for our accepted article—errors we did not cause—we are once again being asked to repeat corrections we have already made, multiple times, exactly as instructed. It is painfully obvious that AI is being used in production. The results speak for themselves.

I'm currently experiencing one of the most unprofessional proof processes I've ever encountered. Even after fully correcting what was clearly an AI-mangled literature reference list, new distorted versions keep coming back repeatedly. It’s incredibly frustrating.
