MIT says that due to concern about the “integrity” of a high-profile paper on the effects of artificial intelligence on research and innovation, the paper “should be withdrawn from public speech”.
The paper contained in the question of “artificial intelligence, scientific invention and product innovation” was written by a doctoral student in the University Economics Program. It has to prove that an AI equipment was discovered in a large -ly-containing materials science lab as a result of the introduction of more materials and more patent filing, but researchers spent to reduce satisfaction with their work.
MIT Economists Daron Acemoglu (who recently) The Nobel Prize won) And both of David Auto praised this paper last year, Wall Street Journal says Autor He was “floor”. In a statement included MIT’s announcement On Friday, the paper was already known and discussed in literature on AI and science, though it was not published in any referred journal. “
However, these two economists have said that “they now have no confidence in the introduction of information, reliability or legitimacy and the truth of the study.”
According to the WSJWith the experience of material science, a computer scientist came to Asemoglu and Autor with concerns in January. They brought these concerns to the MIT, which leads to an internal review.
MIT says that because of the student’s privacy law, it cannot publish the results of that review, but the paper author “is no longer in MIT”. And though the author’s name is not in the university announcement, both A preprint version of paper And the initial press coverage identified him as Idan Toner-Rodger. (Reaching Toner-Rodgers to comment on Takechen))
MIT also says that they have requested to withdraw this paper from the quarterly journal Journal of Economics, where it was submitted for publication and from the preprint website ACEC. Obviously, only a paper writer is supposed to submit the request for the withdrawal of ARCI, but MIT says “till today, the author has not done so.”
