Harvard physicist Matthew Schwartz publishes 36 papers co-authored with Claude

Original: Harvard particle physicist Matthew Schwartz drops 36 papers authored with Claude

Harvard particle physicist Matthew Schwartz has released 36 research papers listing the AI assistant Claude as a co-author. The move is drawing debate among physicists and researchers over whether AI systems can legitimately be credited as authors, and what the practice means for scientific publishing norms, accountability and peer review standards.

Why now: The unusual step of naming an AI as co-author on such a large batch of papers challenges established authorship rules in academic publishing.
