If your concern is primarily about researchers in academia using this and believing what it says without skepticism, then higher education has failed them.
And if you think that all published “research” was guaranteed to be accurate before AI tools became available, then I think you should start looking more critically at sources yourself.
Regardless of the “no true scientist would use it” argument and the argument about what I believe, the fact is that LLM slop is flooding the academia.
AI companies promising their LLMs will now do “research” won’t help.
And research that’s done outside of the academia (like business or independent thinker research) will be more muddied, with more people misled.
