Generative AI (GenAI) has become a staple in the scientific community, but have the forecasts of previous years actually come true? This webinar will provide an industry analysis and address key questions:

• Are the initial promises being met?
• Has the editor's job actually become easier?
• Has the quality of scientific papers improved?
• What GenAI-related questions are scientists currently investigating?
• Are existing standards and guidelines for GenAI in journals actually working?

Speaker: Marina Zeldina, Head of the Elpub.Education project (NEICON).

Certificates: All participants who attend the full session will receive personalized certificates. Please ensure your full name is entered correctly during registration.

Please note: Space is limited.

On March 5, 2026, a webinar was held to discuss the new built-in text verification system, Domate, which has been available to Elpub users since February. The session featured Yury Chekhovich, the system's creator, founder of Domate, and head of a laboratory at the V.A. Trapeznikov Institute of Control Sciences of the RAS.

Participants witnessed a live demonstration of the tool's capabilities, learned about its future development plans, and asked questions on how to distinguish human-written text from AI-generated content.

The webinar recording is now publicly accessible in the ELPUB Knowledge Base for everyone interested.

On March 12, 2026 at 12:00 (Moscow time), an open webinar titled “When a Reference Looks Real: Bibliographic Confabulations Generated by AI in the Practice of a Scholarly Journal” will be held as part of the Elpub Educational Program. Participation is free, but registration is required.

Registration: https://pruffme.com/landing/elpub/fakereference 

The speaker: Svetlana Aleksandrovna Morozova, Deputy Director of the Fundamental Library and Senior Lecturer at the Department of Theory and Methods of Continuing Pedagogical Education, Institute of Pedagogy, Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia.

The session will address one of the most pressing challenges in contemporary scholarly communication — the emergence of inaccurate yet seemingly credible bibliographic references generated by AI tools. Based on an analysis of Russian‑language articles published in peer‑reviewed journals, the webinar will demonstrate that fake references appear not only in papers by early‑career researchers but also in works authored by experienced scholars, including journals indexed in the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI), listed by the Higher Attestation Commission (VAK), and included in the White List.

Key topics:

• practical approaches to classifying and detecting AI‑generated inaccurate references;
• fake bibliographies as indicators of AI‑induced hallucinations within research texts;
• the formation of “propagation chains” of false references through subsequent publications.

Participants will receive a certificate.
