Will a physics paper be published in Nature or Science and later be found to have a major mistake that the authors will publicly blame on machine learning tools, by Dec 31, 2025?
The paper must have been accepted for publication after the market creation date. It must be later found to be incorrect in such a way that the main result does not hold anymore. The authors must publicly admit that the mistake was due in large part to the AI/machine learning methods they relied upon. The fact that the authors take personal responsibility for the mistake is irrelevant, as long as they credibly link it to AI. Careless use of AI tools counts.
