Steven Rosenbaum's new book *The Future of Truth* contains inaccurate quotes generated by AI. Rather than remove them, the author is keeping the synthetic quotes in the text.
Rosenbaum used AI to help write portions of his book, which resulted in fabricated quotes attributed to real people. The quotes do not exist in their original sources, a common problem known as AI "hallucination."
Instead of treating this as an error to correct, Rosenbaum has decided to retain the synthetic quotes while disclosing their AI origin in the book. He frames this as a deliberate exploration of how AI creates content, making it relevant to his book's central theme about truth in the digital age.
The decision raises questions about accuracy and reader trust. Publishers and authors typically remove false attributions before publication. Rosenbaum's approach—keeping inaccurate quotes as part of the narrative—represents an unusual stance that blurs the line between documentary and experiment.
The book serves as a case study in how AI tools can generate convincing but false information, illustrating the very problems Rosenbaum's work examines.
