This is such an important piece - thanks for writing it

Truly and deeply upsetting to see this from a journal in our field. I have received several transphobic comments on my work from top journals, so I unfortunately can't say I'm surprised. But we have to do better.

Yikes. I might send a polite email to the journal asking for an update and, if that doesn't spur any action, move on to the next journal.

I have some analyses to run that my calendar is telling me I don't have time for. Should I just send them to you? What's one more

My hope was to create ownership and show them that they have to add value beyond chatgpt when they are on the job. There have of course still been violations of the policy, but it hasn't been as rampant as expected. I imagine the stress of finals will change that, though.

They still have a couple of days so I'm really just trying to forecast how bad it's going to be. I gave them an assignment the first week of class where I asked them to reflect on legitimate vs. detrimental uses of AI and create their own policy.

Or would it be activism for physicians who focus on reproductive healthcare to say that banning abortions kills people? Or is that just sharing scientific evidence?

I completely agree with Lars. Papers written on every topic take a stance - that increased performance is good, high turnover is bad, etc. They all make recommendations about org practice. That is arguably the point of our field. But it's called "activism" when it's about DEI?

DEI is also a concept and this mistakes people's commitment to that goal as uncritical acceptance of all individual DEI initiatives. They aren't the same thing. Those of us who care about DEI want high standards for DEI initiatives. Not to just support bad practice.

I've been dragging it privately but would be happy to move that to a public forum 😂

I would love to be added. Thanks!

Thanks for doing this. I would love to be added.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I do this year after year and never learn.
