If a carpenter builds a crappy shelf “because” his power tools are not calibrated correctly - that’s a crappy carpenter, not a crappy tool.

If a scientist uses an LLM to write a paper with fabricated citations - that’s a crappy scientist.

AI is not the problem, laziness and negligence is. There needs to be serious social consequences to this kind of thing, otherwise we are tacitly endorsing it.

Trades also have self regulation. You can’t sell plumbing services or build houses without any experience or you get in legal trouble. If your workmanship is poor, you can be disciplined by the board even if the tool was at fault. I think fraudulent publications should be taken at least as seriously as badly installed toilets.
