arXiv enacts one-year ban on unverified AI-generated papers
arXiv has implemented a one-year submission ban on authors who upload papers containing unverified AI-generated content. The policy targets recurring issues such as hallucinated references and residual large-language-model meta-comments. It applies to the preprint server’s standard review process to prevent low-quality outputs from entering the scientific record. Academics have discussed enforcement steps including requirements for evidence of prior peer-reviewed acceptance.

This is kind of a shitpost but unironically, reputations (good and bad) should be well known and have some persistence. This is especially true given AI tools.

"Dad, why do the other kids say I have no rizz?"
"Well son, let me tell you about a mistake your grandfather made decades ago with a model called Haiku 4.5...."

@PMinervini that makes them factual, non-hallucinated:)
Pasquale Minervini@PMinerviniMy main concern about this is that many students use e.g. Google Scholar, which is riddled with bad bibtex entries
@thegautamkamath Yeah bet slop isn't the issue here. The issue is the enormously risk in getting involved in collaborations and supervision with the current policy
Nota that an arxiv document can be submitted without your direct permission

@PMinervini Your students use all sorts of LLMs as well
