Every single person who did this should be censured by their own institutions.

Do it more than once? Lose job.

End of story.

Some of the examples listed are using the wrong paper title for a real paper (titles can change over time), missing authors (I’ve seen this before on Google Scholar bibitex), misstatements of venue (huh this working paper I added to my bibliography two years ago got published now nice to know), and similar mistakes. This just tells me you hate academics and want to hurt them gratuitously.

Well then you're being rather silly, because that is a silly conclusion to draw (and one not supported by the evidence).

A fairer conclusion was that I meant what is obvious: if you use AI to generate a bibliography, you are being academically negligent.

If you disagree with that, I would say it is you that has the problem with academia, not me.

		There’s plenty of pre-AI automated tools to create and manage your bibliography. So no I don’t think using automated tools, AI or not, is negligent. I for instance have used GPT to reformat tables in latex in ways that would be very tedious by hand and it’s no different than using those tools that autogenerate latex code for a regression output or the like.
