Aw man, seeing this title and that it was from the NYT had me excited for a minute. I was like "oohhh shit, the mainstream media is calling them out for using LLM in the headline?!”

Turns out, the actual heading is just "White House Health Report Included Fake Citations".

They have a few people comment on how LLMs can result in this problem, but still not nearly as dramatic as calling out some bullshit in the headline.
