AI Ghostwriting Is Creeping Into Science—Is That a Bad Thing?

ChatGPT just peer-reviewed your paper—and nobody noticed.

### The Invisible Co-Author

LLMs are drafting research abstracts, polishing grant proposals, even 'collaborating' on Nature submissions. Peer review? More like bot-and-forget.

### The Efficiency Trap

Labs report 40% faster paper turnaround. Journals spot 300% more suspiciously 'fluent' submissions. Wall Street analysts—suddenly very interested—call it 'automated intellectual arbitrage.'

### The Replication Crisis 2.0

When AI writes methods sections, who's accountable for fudged data? Spoiler: Not the algorithm.

Science outsources its voice to silicon ghosts. The real question isn't whether it's cheating—it's whether we'll still recognize truth when it's written in code.
