Most of which were in footnotes where she described a nozzle for a 3D printer or something like this. And they said, we're publishing, you know, tonight. The email they sent to us was 6,900 words. It was 12 pages. It was practically indescribable. You couldn't even read it in an hour. And we didn't have some of the documents they were referring to.

And I'm like, Nara, you know what I'm going to do? I think it will be useful to provide context here. I'm going to do a review of every MIT professor's dissertations, every published paper, AI has enabled this. And so that was, I put out a tweet basically saying that. And we're doing a test run now because we have to get it right.

And I think it'll be a useful exercise, provide some context, if you will. And then this thing goes crazy viral. And you know, Nary is a pretty sensitive person, pretty emotional person and someone who's a perfectionist and having everyone in the world thinking you committed academic fraud is a pretty damning thing.

Now, they did say they did a thorough review of all of her work, and this is what they found. I'm like, sweetheart, that's remarkable. She did 130 works, 73 of which were peer-reviewed, blah, blah, blah, and she's published in Nature Science and all these different publications. That's actually a pretty good batting average. But, you know, they can't, this is wrong, right?

This is not academic fraud, okay? These are inadvertent mistakes. And the Wikipedia entries, Nary actually used Wikipedia as a dictionary. This is the early days of Wikipedia. And they also referred to the MIT handbook, which has a whole section on plagiarism, academic handbook. And if you read it, which I ultimately did, they make clear a few things. Number one, there's plagiarism, academic fraud.

And there's what they call inadvertent plagiarism, which is clerical errors where you make a mistake. And it depends on intent. And there's a link that you can go to, which is a section on if you get investigated at MIT, what happens? What's the procedure? What's the initial stage? What's the investigative stage? What's the procedure if they identify it?

And they make very clear that academic fraud is, and they list plagiarism, you know, research theft, a few other things, but it does not include honest errors. Honest errors are not plagiarism under MIT's own policies. And in the handbook, they also have a big section on what they call common knowledge. And common knowledge depends on who you're writing your thesis for.
