I thoroughly agree with business ethicist Dr. Dorothea Barr’s post about #AI and #hallucinated #references in #research articles. Headline: “Hallucinated References: Five Excuses for Academic Misconduct.” https://dorotheabaur.ch/en/texts-and-media/hallucinated-references-five-excuses-for-academic-misconduct/
Hallucinated References: Five Excuses for Academic Misconduct

When I proposed rejecting papers with hallucinated references, the support was overwhelming. But the critical voices revealed five argument patterns: from AI hype through TINA rhetoric to nihilism.

Do you use #LIbreOffice together with #JabRef and want to have an easy way to convert citations and references to plaintext and vice versa?
We have now published our first LibreOffice extension, originally developed by @teertrinker and extended by the JabRef maintainers.
Check it out under:

Gardner cited #Ramanujan [2] for the general form

[A] : f(n) = exp( π √n )

which is almost integer for some values of n (22, 37, 58, see https://www.imsc.res.in/~rao/ramanujan/CamUnivCpapers/Cpaper6/page4.htm). But n=163 was not explicitly mentioned in [2].

#PiDay

ln( 640320^3 + 744 )/(163)^0.5 = 3.141592653589793238462643383279...

till that last 9 it works, but then it continues with
72661...
rather than 50288... as π does. Nice hoax by Martin Gardner in 1975 [1]
