Ok but first pay researchers to publish. Like WTF why aren't they already?
I think this is more about AI spamming the scientific world with literal trash.

AI is a literal plague and people are gobbling it up. It's so damn broken and shit right now it's not even funny.
Wait was that image published in a journal? That's insane. No reputable journal would ever let that go, so I'm sure it wasn't a reputable one.
My understanding is that it was submitted, reviewed and published then revoked when the absurdness was noticed. This isn't the first thing I've heard about terrible articles being published generated by ai. I wish I could remember the other one. It was recent too.
