#AI may exacerbate bad academic habits:

Science summaries from large language models ( #LLMs) were nearly five times more likely than human-authored summaries to contain broad generalizations (95% CI [3.06, 7.70], p < 0.001).

And newer language models over-generalized more; not less!

Shocking: tools designed to confidently summarize everything often summarize everything too confidently. Next up: knives continue to be pointy. 🍽️🤖 #AI #SciComm #LLM #academia
