[merely-unlikely]

This discussion makes me think peer reviews need more automated tooling somewhat analogous to what software engineers have long relied on. For example, a tool could use an LLM to check that the citation actually substantiates the claim the paper says it does, or else flags the claim for review.

I'd go one further and say all published papers should come with a clear list of "claimed truths", and one is only able to cite said paper if they are linking in to an explicit truth.

Then you can build a true hierarchy of citation dependencies, checked 'statically', and have better indications of impact if a fundamental truth is disproven, ...

Have you authored a lot of non-CS papers?

Could you provide a proof of concept paper for that sort of thing? Not a toy example, an actual example, derived from messy real-world data, in a non-trivial[1] field?

hey, i'm a part of the gptzero team that built automated tooling, to get the results in that article!

totally agree with your thinking here, we can't just give this to an LLM, because of the need to have industry-specific standards for what is a hallucination / match, and how to do the search
