I honestly thought this was about Trump for the first few paragraphs, and almost quit reading.
While we've found the the scientific meathod doesn't scale, I suspect that a Watson style application could seriously help one day. This is only compounded this with the "publish or perish" mentality. This encourages falsifying results, but also adds more noise to the pool of journals, decreasing your chance of being called out. I don't think the issue is with liars, but with the system.
What we really need now is Scienceology, (no not the religion) but a division of science that analyzes science. Finding better ways than what we have now.
edit: Cleaned up to make it slightly less nonsensical. I really shouldn't make a comment before having a coffee.
