AI-Generated Nonsense Images in Published Stem Cell Paper Spark Concerns over Research Integrity
- Scientific journal publishes AI-generated images of rats with bogus labels like "Dissilced" and "Retat" in legitimate research paper on stem cells
- Images supposedly reviewed by editors and peer reviewers before publication, but clear errors got through
- Other AI-generated diagrams in paper could pass as accurate to untrained eye at first glance
- Recent study found ChatGPT abstracts fooled experts 32% of time, warning of integrity crisis
- Inclusion of nonsense images throws whole study into question even if text content is valid
