"LLMs are structurally indifferent to the truth"

https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/ai-chatbot-journal-research-fake-citations-1235485484/

Academic journals being invented, and now those citations contain bullshit #AI citations, giving legitimacy to a string of bullshit papers.... Flooding the zone with shit.

The cynic in me thinks this could be deliberate - by those who want to make the 'post-truth age' a reality.
