Abstract

The editorial summarises the development of the Acta Informatica Pragensia journal over the last three years and complements the journal statistics for the years 2019-2025. Thanks to the indexing of the journal in Web of Science and Scopus citation databases, the world's most prestigious scientific citation databases, the journal began to profile itself as international with regional roots and a core community of Editorial Board members from Central Europe. The paper also presents the journal metrics and statistics of submitted and accepted articles for the observed period. Against the background of the current development of tools based on generative artificial intelligence, the perspectives presented in selected articles previously published in Acta Informatica Pragensia are discussed in the context of current and future directions of academic publishing. Finally, unfair practices of authors that I have encountered in our journal as Editor-in-Chief are presented and some others that are currently resonating in academic communities are also listed.
