Summary
Andy Stapleton analyses a publicly embarrassing case where a major AI company’s research paper was found to contain hallucinated references — papers that don’t exist but look real. The video explains how AI tools (including ChatGPT, Gemini) fabricate plausible-sounding citations, why this is happening at scale, and how to protect research integrity.
PUMA Relevance
This video is the practical justification for PUMA’s Marco Veritas protocol (Section 1.8: AI use declaration). Every bibliography entry in PUMA must be verified in primary source precisely because AI-generated citations are indistinguishable from real ones at first glance. The video also supports the bibliography verification work done in BIB-Supplement.
