Earlier, I posted a 🧵 about the articles that students liked in my graduate course on executive function (EF)👇.

I taught a graduate course on executive function (EF) in the spring. Before I forget, I thought I'd tell you about the readings students liked the best (at the end of the semester, I asked students to vote for their favorite papers, excl. any of mine). Here are the top vote getters. 🧵 (1/6)

So written by an LLM then. All of the LLMs still hallucinate in this way—making up citations, getting interpretations of papers wrong, etc. Good to know that the people making these decisions are not putting in the work and do not have the required expertise.
