>The researchers believe the rise may be linked to the growing use of AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot. These systems are known to occasionally invent information. Scientists say some cases may involve deliberate fraud, while others could be the result of careless use of AI.
When a researcher submitted a manuscript, I would think that there is an expectation that cited references have actually been read by the writer, to ensure that they support the assertion cited. This is no different from expecting that an experiment was performed as described in the Materials and Methods section. To submit a paper without having vetted the references is fraud.
Such researchers should be investigated by their institution and penalized for committing research fraud. Who knows what other omissions have been made? Such things can degrade the reputation of the institution itself.
Health studies should not be fucked with, period. Of course nowadays noone gets punished so it will only happen more.

This doesn’t surprise me. I came from a basic science background (molecular genetics) where the quality of papers was mostly quite high. I was astounded how low-quality the papers are when I started medical writing professionally, not to mention the sheer volume of mostly trash publications. I find math errors DAILY.
