Some portion of this effect can be chalked up to AI’s ability to juice productivity, especially among non-English-speaking scientists who need help presenting their research.

Techdirt: A Reddit Post, An AI Hallucination, And Two Lawyers Who Never Checked Citations Walk Into A Dog Custody Case. “A hallucinated citation traveled through an entire legal proceeding — from a Reddit blog post to a client’s declaration to an attorney’s letter to the opposing attorney’s draft of the court order to the judge’s signature to appellate filings — and at no point […]

Search Engine Land: Only 15% of pages retrieved by ChatGPT appear in final answers: Report. “ChatGPT retrieves far more webpages than it cites.

#Citationhole of the day: Discussing when the #French settled near #Mobile, #Alabama and when they founded #NewOrleans, Wendte (2020) cited Dawdy (2008) and Eccles (1998).
