@dralexsundermann: Using AI to generate fake citations can be a form of research misconduct. It can lead to false conclusions and cause more misinformation to spread. Here, Google’s AI is already digesting the information from HHS as fact. So if they keep using it? More misinformation spread.
Not misinformation, lies. The terminology matters too. They are lying.

AI is literally going to change the history books based off of siting Reddit posts as fact

Point of clarity after posting: I did not find the fake citations (the judge investigation did), but I’m pointing out the digestion into Google AI

Ugh. Remember when the government was widely considered to be a reputable source in and of itself? I’m not a fan of this timeline.

It didn’t concede, it just gave the most appropriate response to your pushing according to how it was trained. But your overall point still stands and is very important.

Are you assuming it was generated by AI? This administration is not above just making up a citation.

Can she not bring some sort of legal action for that? I certainly wouldn't want my name attached to a fake study.

If you repeat the lie enough, people think it is true. If you own the systems that can repeat it…….

When I was in college many moons ago, I volunteered teaching sex education in local middle schools. It was a known fact way back then that abstinence-only sex education was not beneficial. Mind you, someone from the administration was decrying the lack of babies from teen pregnancies just the other day, and the widow Kirk was just telling a bunch of women to have more babies than they can afford. It’s all related and folks need to be suspicious of ANY data coming out of this White House.

Let’s face the fact that these people are concerned that birth rates have dropped for teen pregnancies.

my eldest child works in a local county courthouse in their docketing department. and there are defendants representing themselves that are citing case law that does not exist ...why? because they are using AI. it's really disturbing

The real problem is that we are not going to have real information as time goes by. If its all AI then how will we ever be able to confirm?
