Summary

  • Robert F Kennedy Junior’s Make American Healthy Again (MAHA) commission has been using incorrect and multiple sources in its reports, according to investigations by The Washington Post and NOTUS.
  • At least seven of the sources used were fictitious, with wrong issue numbers, broken links and misstated studies also appearing in the report.
  • Among the discoveries made, several URLs included “oaicite”, a marker from OpenAI indicating the use of AI tools in the report’s compilation, suggesting the use of ChatGPT.
  • Despite Kennedy’s previous advocacy for the “AI revolution”, the HHS has now updated the report, correcting “minor citation and formatting errors”, according to a statement from HHS spokesman Andrew Nixon.
  • The statement also reaffirmed that the “substance of the MAHA report remains the same”.
