Yuck, this is going to really harm scientific research.

There is already a problem with papers falsifying data/samples/etc, LLMs being able to put out plausible papers is just going to make it worse.

On the bright side, maybe this will get the scientific community and science journalists to finally take reproducibility more seriously. I'd love to see future reporting that instead of saying "Research finds amazing chemical x which does y" you see "Researcher reproduces amazing results for chemical x which does y. First discovered by z".

Have they solved the issue where papers that cite research already invalidated are still being cited?

It would be great if those scientists who use AI without disclosing it get fucked for life.

Harsh sentiment. Pretty soon every knowledge worker will use AI every day. Should people disclose spellcheckers powered by AI? Disclosing is not useful. Being careful in how you use it and checking work is what matters.
