Journals infiltrated with 'copycat' papers that can be written by AI

  > The study’s authors warn that individuals and paper mills — companies that produce fake papers to order and sell authorships — might be exploiting publicly available health data sets and using large language models (LLMs) to mass-produce low-quality papers that lack scientific value. I know that "AI" gets the clicks - but it doesn't sound like Nature cares all that much about minimal-value research getting published. Vs. any human scientist who is trying to keep current has very limited time for reading research articles. Journals that publish junk articles, whether "AI" or "artisinal", are de facto poison.
