This has absolutely exploded just in the last month or so. Sick to death already of people seeing nothing wrong with routine use of AI, sometimes even when it's pointed out to them that their piece is riddled with AI hallucinations.
Academics and technologists are sounding the alarm about a growing crisis in scholarship as we know it: AI-generated citations of nonexistent papers that have infested real journals. Despite being fake, the sources are widely assumed to be authentic the more they appear in published literature.
AI Is Inventing Academic Papers That Don't Exist -- And They're Being Cited in Real Journals
Academic articles from authors using large language model are creating an ecosystem of fake research that threatens human knowledge itself.
