@force @Hypx I'm no fan of Google or ad-stuffing meandering blogs, but what is a better solution than publishing freely online and also providing services to search?

@floofloof They charge €40 for access, yet one is left wondering what sort of peer review this paper has undergone when obvious signs of generative AI has slipped in. What about less obvious signs? If the "authors" had simply used the copy-to-clipboard icon in chatgpt, they would have been all good and this would never have been uncovered.

If anything, this is an argument for free public access to scientific papers. Any experts on AI could scan and detect this, even when it's more subtle.

@Bebo hopefully a future solution. But there are so many "hopefully future solutions" to so many big problems, and in the meantime we're not doing what we need to be doing right now. If we can't scale this up massively and unleash it on the oceans, is it helping much? Or is it just giving technology optimists a clean conscience?
