It's not new, just getting worse, huh?
The motivation isn't, but the technology to generate a slop paper is.
I'll be interested to see how journals and (even better) the scientific community at large deals with this. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise?
Its gonna be something distopian AF, like every scientist now gets public "science scores" based on number of attributable citations and everyone now tries to game their science score so they can secure tenure.
