Science publisher Springer Nature has developed two new AI tools to detect fake research and duplicate images in scientific papers, helping to protect the integrity of published studies.

The growing number of cases of fake research is already putting a strain on the scientific publishing industry, according to Springer Nature. Following a pilot phase, the publisher is now rolling out two AI tools to identify papers with AI-generated fake content and problematic images — both red flags for research integrity issues.

The first tool, called “Geppetto,” detects AI-generated content, a telltale sign of “paper mills” producing fake research papers. The tool divides the paper into sections and uses its own algorithms to check the consistency of the text in each section.
