Man Humiliated by His AI Use Says He Just Can’t Quit

Steven Rosenbaum, author of an AI-and-truth nonfiction book, was found by a New York Times investigation to have included more than six fabricated or misattributed quotes.

He admitted using ChatGPT and Claude while writing and editing the book, and said he still plans to use AI, but more carefully.

The incident underscores how AI-generated hallucinations can slip into nonfiction and damage trust, fact-checking, and editorial standards.
