The study analyzes 207,111 astronomy papers from 2015 to mid‑2026 to quantify how many contain language‑model‑generated vocabulary. Using a hierarchical Bayesian model calibrated on pre‑2020 unassisted papers and 392 papers that disclose model use, the authors estimate that in 2025 roughly 54% (±8% statistical, ±26% systematic) of papers show a language‑model trace, with the estimate remaining above 36% under various assumptions. Despite only 0.81% of 2025 papers explicitly declaring model assistance, the trace is pervasive, and the detectable signal is fading as authors adapt to the characteristic words. whyItMatters":"The findings reveal that language‑model assistance has become widespread in recent astronomy research, yet most authors do not disclose its use, highlighting a growing gap between actual practice and transparency in scholarly writing."
The paper introduces TSS (Triple-Stream Stress probe), a diagnostic framework that splits text into lexical, morpho-syntactic, and psycholinguistic style channels to analyze mental health NLP classifiers. Across four English datasets, TSS uncovers a lexical interference effect where adding lexical features harms performance on human-labeled data but not on auto-labeled data, and proposes the Degree of Divergence (DoD) statistic to audit label-source bias. The study demonstrates that style features largely remain effective even after masking content words, emphasizing that shortcut learning is label-source specific rather than clinically relevant.

The study examines how the rapid turnover of large language models (LLMs) undermines the effectiveness of AI‑detectors used to screen scientific manuscripts. By comparing 4,000 PNAS abstracts rewritten by 23 different LLM versions released between June 2023 and August 2026, the authors show that detectors trained on past versions can fail dramatically at generation boundaries, missing up to 96% of rewrites just after a sharp transition. Even detectors updated to newer versions can overlook rewrites of older models, and a commercial detector missed most rewrites of the newest version while flagging few human‑written abstracts.
arXiv:2606. 05970v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models are increasingly used for structured extraction from clinical free-text notes, but the sensitivity of their output to upstream configuration choices is less understood than their accuracy on fixed benchmarks.
arXiv:2608.29921v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The output of a Language Model can be tampered with \emph{while} the model is writing it. A simple test can thus be constructed by evaluating the mod...
Accuracy changes after language-model self-revision are usually interpreted as changes in reasoning. We show this can fail at the answer-extraction boundary, and test the failure causally rather than only observationally.
arXiv:2607. 19257v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Practitioners make three prompt-design decisions with almost no controlled evidence behind them: how to format instructions and context (markdown, plain text, prose, or tabular), how many simultaneous instructions a system prompt can carry before compliance degrades, and how much context a model can hold before recall and honesty degrade.
