If I recall correctly, a number of years ago, plenty prior to ChatGPT, there was an incident with a scientific journal (don't recall the name though). Perhaps others here may know of this incident too...
So apparently someone submitted a paper that was entirely nonsense. This was intentional but not explicit as it was just a stunt. The paper had all the right fancy/technical words, the right structure, likely even images, and apparently a convincing conclusion. But it was all about nothing, nothing substantial at all, nada. Had a peer reviewer actually read the paper, it would have not been published and summarily tossed. But it did go print and oh boy, the journal's board/powers-that-be were pissed. I didn't follow the story much past that point but I think something was supposedly proposed to prevent this.
