Holy cow, this is bad - check out the nonsensical figures in this review: completely generated in Midjourney (!!), not even re-labeling the gibberish text labels (!!!).

This was published by Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, where the editorial office should have caught this and nuked it from orbit. Wow.

Edit: It’s been retracted 3 days after publication and 1 day after it blew up. That was quick.

    Those are good reads. But I have a hunch Adam should have a look into mediocre-link, e.g. noise problems. I agree on lots of his findings, but to me he seems to underestimate the detrimental effect of noise (like this AI BS, but also lots of Social Media chatter) on public - or in this case scientific - discourse.
