I suspect there being a shred of plausibility is why there’s so many people lying about it for attention.

It’s as simple as copying and pasting a link to prove it. If it is actually happening, it would benefit us all to know the facts surrounding it.

sure, here's a link of a conversation from today 12/9/24 which has multiple incorrect: references, links, papers, journal titles, DOIs, and authors.

as just another example, chatgpt said in the Okita paper that they switched media on day 3, when if you read the paper they switched the media on day 8. so not only did it fail to generate the correct reference, it also failed to accurately interpret the contents of a specific paper.
