From JunkScience.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Steve Milloy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new low for artificial intelligence \u2014 ChatGPT cited admittedly \u201cfictional\u201d scientific studies to answer a question about radiation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ahead of coming blockbuster radiation safety news on JunkScience.com, I asked ChatGPT whether exposure to radiation can cause genetic mutation.\u00a0In its best imitation of 1946 Nobel prize winner Herman Muller<\/a>, one of the all-time biggest science frauds, ChatGPT responded affirmatively:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So I asked ChatGPT to cite a study reporting that radiation induces genetic mutation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Curious, I tried to find the study that ChatGPT not only cited but described. What I found, though, is that no such study actually exists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I went back to ChatGPT with that information and it responded:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then I tried to find the second study, which is also described in some detail. Again, it did not exist. And I reported that to ChatGPT, which then mades an astounding admission:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It is apparently so well established that radiation can induce genetic mutation that ChatGPT can\u2019t cite a single real study and instead offers \u201cfictional studies.\u201d And though ChatGPT only offers fictional studies to support its position, it still maintains that radiation causes genetic mutation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
