🧑🏫 PPS in a nutshell: problem tackled and method used ⸻ 🎥 video in English or in French.
👨💻 Problematic papers are reported as PubPeer posts, see the tortured phrases collection and more.
Modern plagiarists are making use of software and perhaps even emerging AI technologies to draft articles—and they’re getting away with it. https://t.co/fBThIjRwnt— Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists (@BulletinAtomic) January 13, 2022

I spoke to @gcabanac about his work uncovering fabricated papers containing "tortured phrases" -- weirdly paraphrased versions of scientific terms (like "underground creepy crawly state" for "ant colony") -- for this year's Nature's 10. https://t.co/orRmF0XtXw— Diana Kwon (@DianaMKwon) December 15, 2021

Hundreds of junk-science papers have been retracted from reputable journals after fraudsters used ‘special issues’ to manipulate the publication process. And the problem is growing. https://t.co/FSKKvfV2ez— nature (@Nature) November 9, 2021

Why say 'colossal information' instead of big data? Or 'counterfeit consciousness' instead of artificial intelligence? These tortured phases in research articles could be evidence of a new and disturbing fabrication trend. https://t.co/TO6U0qckig— nature (@Nature) August 8, 2021

Hundreds of nonsensical computer-generated articles, spotted years after the problem was first seen, could lead to a wave of retractions. https://t.co/u89i4315oT— nature (@Nature) May 27, 2021
