I’ve been ranting & raging for years about predatory journals publishing bad & fake research, then ranting & raging for years about AI generated papers with more fake articles, authors, journals in citations. People using AI to generate fake publications & pass it as ‘research’ deserve all the hells
Recently, I was peer reviewing a paper, and it cited one of my papers.
Except... it wasn't anything I had written. The title sounds like something I'd write. It included coauthors I work with, and was in a journal I've published in.
But it wasn't real.
AI is not good for science.
The thing I think few people understand is where is future AI going to learn from? AI learns from humans, scraping the web for information/knowledge/art developed by humans.
