Key points

  • AI-generated papers are now so good that they are hard to distinguish from human-written ones.
  • Many such papers exploit public datasets to produce countless trivial correlations.
  • The peer-review system is at a breaking point due to the volume and subtlety of low-quality submissions.
  • AI agent tools can autonomously produce complete papers, exacerbating the problem.
