Arzilli et al. 2025 and Bechky & Davis 2024 both warn that generative AI will inflate publication volume and further strain an already overcapacity publishing system, compounding publish-or-perish pressures and the risk of an unreliable-information infodemic.

Partly supported

Both texts support the publication-volume warning, but the overcapacity-system strain appears only in Bechky & Davis, the infodemic only in Arzilli et al., and 'publish-or-perish pressures' in neither cited text.
