Unfortunately, it's probably not worth your time to read 99% of arxiv papers, LLM generated or otherwise.

Ever pick a random one and really dive in?

Agreed. There was already too much human generated slop in academia.

And I’m not talking about good faith research that didn’t pan out, I mean research that is completely useless for any other purpose other than convincing a casual observer that the authors are doing research.
