436 Randomly Generated ‘Peer Reviewed’ Papers Published by Springer Nature
Remember those mysterious emails that first started popping up in the 90s that had paragraphs of words in them that almost made sense but didn't?
That industry has come along way in those 30 years.
"The paper can’t decide if it’s about organic pollutants or the beauty of Latin dancing, and switches instantly from one to the other half way through the abstract. The publisher claims this went through about two months of review, during which time the editors proved their value by assigning it helpful keywords..."
It's all about boosting someone's or something's exposure on the web. Perhaps it could be called artificial publicity. And everyone involved always says they were hacked, which is all too true most of the time. Some of it could be practice for making better fictional stories with reasonable plot twists solely created by AI. With all the research being done to improve the table manners of Siri, Alexa, GoogleSpeaks, and Cortana, the world of made up words will only become more perfect as the trickle down economies of web procedures spread throughout the world's internet users. Watson is probably in a class by itself, being able to play a good game of chess, read medical papers and tests, and direct remote medical procedures. Wonder what kind of yarns Watson can spin.
