Yeah that's not going to work for long. You can draw a line in 2023, and say "Every paper before this isn't AI". But in the future, you're going to have AI generated papers citing other AI slop papers that slipped through the cracks, because of the cost of doing reseach vs the cost of generating AI slop, the AI slop papers will start to outcompete the real research papers.

How is this different from flat earth / creationist papers citing other flat earth / creationist papers ?

This started to rear its ugly head when electric typewriters got more affordable.

Sometimes all it takes is faster horses and you're off to the races :\
