The closest article I could find to "Smith, J. et al. (2023). "Advances in Probabilistic Forecasting." Journal of Forecasting" was from the April issue of Journal of Forecasting, but the article was titled: Advances in forecasting: An introduction in light of the debate on inflation forecasting and there was no Smith, J. that was involved in writing that article. Where do these numbers for improvements in the various industries come from? Somethings feels off with this readme.

Also if we're criticizing the reference list, all of them are from 2022 and 2023, which is a weird distribution: (1) things don't move that quickly, there should be some older references (2) but if things do move that quickly, there should be some references from 2024 (or even 2025!)

Also the names of the authors, the paper titles, and the journals seem generic and single-authored papers aren't very common in this area.

It’s AI slop.

This is reasonably obviously GPT-generated self-promotion with fake references. Downvote hard

Just incredible. I read through it thinking there’d be a punchline, but no. Then it dawned on me. It’s AI slop.
