I understand why AI would find and use the weird phrase (vegetative electron microscopy) if it's used on the Internet. But I'm confused about the term being used in scientific papers? Does that mean the scientific papers were written by (or with the help of) AI systems? And the folks writing the scientific papers didn't proof read their papers?

- tasuki 1y agoNot surprising at all though.
- firesteelrain 1y agoIt was digitized and translated wrong by computer systems pre-Generative AI then GenAI comes along and uses it in reference material. People either reading the original text or brainstorming via GenAI comes along across this term and judge it as authoritative. So it persists
- carlmr 1y agoNot only that, AI is used for translation a lot nowadays, and the trust in its output seems to be quite high. If you're not a native English speaker and aren't surrounded by many, you might have a much harder time finding such a mistake while proofreading. I've seen students hand in auto-translated garbage 10 years ago. Nowadays auto-translation works well enough that you are at least able to read it.
