The positive purposes of contributions to scientific literature

To the Editor,
Recently, the editorial board of this journal was notified by a referee that a submitted paper had the following characteristics : “The manuscript has 100% AI plagiarism by Turnitin and 98% of AI written text by ZeroGPT.” Large scale plagiarism was detected using dedicated software. Such occurrences beg the question of the purposes of having journals open to the public for contributions.
The reasons why journals and large volume scientific publications exist in culturally connected , politically and economically dominant cultures are many, all inter-related. There is the primary need to solve problems faced by the community at large, and in these societies with complex industrial and manufacturing processes, the need for solutions to the inevitable problems that would arise along the supply chains and manufacturing processes creates the pressing demand for research. Scientific literature contributions arise from such demands as a fundamental causative factor. Such exposure to the results and conclusions of research also stimulates the development of the theoretical sciences to axiomatize and formalize research pointing to patterns and order in the experimental outcomes. Such connected societies have a culturally evolved system of identity, purpose and value, realizing that the individual exists in relation to the specific culture, and society exists as a result of the self -motivated activities of the individual existing in cooperation with the society that the person feels related to, with a high emotional content attached to these relations. Such a bilateral dynamic implies the existence of an anamnesis tradition extending over centuries [1. Jesudason,C.G. (2020). Commentary on Third World attempts to improve the intellectual strength of researchers and students in higher education: a cultural and philosophical approach.
