We very recently had a scandal here in Norway where a city council wanted to shut down a bunch of schools, and to justify this they had written a report where they cited research that backed up their rationale.<p>Problem was, someone had used some LLM to write the report, which in turn had hallucinated research...but used real authors as the foundation. Some observant journalist contacted the researchers, to inquire on their work - and the researchers were baffled, as they had never written those papers that had been cited in the report. Real world consequences of AI misuse.<p>But back to the topic of OP: I've seen some pretty sketchy science books, which tend to get spammed on various math FB groups. They look legit enough, but you soon discover that they've indeed been AI generated. Not anywhere near as dangerous as the books in the article, but still - imagine how many out there are reading AI generated slop, under the assumption that it is legit.
