Witsit caught lying 1

Witsit sent an email to Bryant Meyers asking him to look up some papers that Austin “tracked down”, but “most of them are behind paywall or institutional access”.

All the citations are examined on this page. You will see that exactly NONE of them exist. None are behind a paywall nor require institutional access. They simply don’t exist.

When Bryant asked why they were such a disordered mess, Austin’s response was “I think I had them get all mixed up its a mess”. Story Change #1.

You will also notice that Witsit is trying to divert attention from the list of junk citations by linking another paper. This time with a real link. Diversion #1.

Bryant responded, questioning again the source of the list. Witsit’s response included “I sent you those papers after getting a lot of them mixed up on accident”. The story remained the same. This time. But the bulk of the email was Diversion #2.

Bryant again responded asking why Witsit asked him to pay for access to the articles. Witsit says “i did not ask you to pay for anything”. Then this “the papers got jumbled up and i was given improper links for them”. Story change #2.

What follows is the most insane algebra I have ever seen. Also, it’s Diversion #3. And his final sentence is Projection #1: “so really it is just that you’re a narcissist”.

The algebra is a masterpiece of wrongness. Absolutely every single step is wrong. Completely wrong. You may be wondering why the background is dark and the text is white. That’s a different story for a different time.

Bryant had a look at the ridiculous math and asked Austin if that was his “final answer”.

Austin must have then decided he would have a look at the math. He says it’s wrong. Yeah, we noticed. Then adds Diversion #4.

They exchanged a couple emails on the paper that Austin loves so much that confirms gravity exists. Then Austin gets back around to the list of papers with junk citations.

The lie is getting exposed. Other people had started asking him about where he got the papers. He is in too deep, though. He can’t back out. So he goes on the offensive with Story change #3 and Diversion #4.

“You guys are now spinning some narrative about how I had chat gpt make up papers and did not even check them to try and deceive people or something? Haha what a joke..”

Yes, Austin. That’s exactly what you did. I have tested ChatGPT with several questions asking for citations on the effects of thunderstorms on gravimeters.

Austin lied. He did not “track them down”, he did not “get them mixed up”, they were not “broken links”.

He asked ChatGPT. Then when the lie was questioned, Austin lied again.

Piling lies on lies is the action of a pathological liar.

On Monday, 2023-04-03 Witsit was on a Discord server and Zanick was curious about the source of the citations. This is Story change #4 followed by Diversion #5.

Here is the transcript:

Zanick
Where did you get those papers from I was trying to find them, I can’t find them.

Austin Whitsit
Someone sent me some of the papers that I couldn’t find links to. So I asked. Now he may have gotten from ChatGPT or something, he hasn’t responded to me. I’ve found like three or four of them, two of which I had in my notes from a couple years ago. And then he said he found some more. I went to try to find them, I couldn’t find them. I then went to ChatGPT and put asked if they could if it could provide link, it was taking me to dead links and stuff. But ChatGPT data only taps caps out at 2021. So I’m like, Oh, well, maybe these links used to be here. Maybe they changed the paper that’s on this specific link or whatever. So I reached out to Bryant Myers and said can you know, a lot of this maybe is required certain database access. I don’t know if you have certain type of institutional access because I used to be a professor where you could help me find these papers. And then Mick Toon took that he sent it to Mick Toon and then Mick Toon made a whole narrative that I made. I asked ChetGPT to make up fake paper, and then tried to slam on it’s like I’m dunking on Bryant Myers with the papers that I didn’t even open up a read because the links don’t go to them and all this weird stuff. So long story short, what we’ve discovered is ChatGPT has access to a lot of private databases, scientific databases that require certain institutional access. So whether the papers are real or not, I don’t know. I think they are. I’ve checked it with many different like AIs like not just ChatGPT, and they all say it’s a real paper. I don’t think ChatGPT would make up a paper. But it does appear that I don’t know where else that guy would have got it other than asking ChatGPT. So he hasn’t confirmed that, but I don’t know. Anyway, long story short, five of the links I couldn’t find I sent to Bryant Myers. And he they made up this whole lie narrative, a whole video, blah, blah, blah, because they’re losers. So and then yeah, I’ve found like three of the links myself, which I’ve already dropped them. And that’s pretty much what happened. So it was even funnier. It’s like, one of the papers that chat one of the papers that ChatGPT did give me about seismology. I sent it to what’s name PhD Tony. And so if you try to look it up, you can’t find it. Right? You can only find like an excerpt. But like PhD, Tony immediately had access to it. So which goes to show you that since he’s a seismologist, maybe he has some type of access, or he searches up academic papers that he is able to find a paper that if you Google it, you can’t find it. But of course, we got a bunch of anti Flat Earthers are like oh, if you google it you can’t find it then what’s it made it up? He’s trying to deceive people. He’s a liar all this

Zanick
I couldn’t find it either. But those three papers you found the links for which went through those.

Austin Whitsit
So I’ll grab them, but I’m not talking about that. So when I’m talking about is, anyone with common sense knows that if you see arrays that are diverging from the horizon, blah, blah diversion, run away, blah.

Questions that Austion left unanswered:

  • You said that 2 of the links in the list you sent to Bryant were previously in your notes. Which 2?
    • I personally checked all 7, none exist, none have ever existed. You lied.
  • Why did you claim that you got the citations when someone else did?
  • Who is the person that sent you the 7 links?
  • What did this person say after you queried them about the junk citations?
  • When you “checked with many different AIs”, which AIs did you check with?

Witsit’s claim about the links papers he previously had is a lie. None of the 7 citations exist. 6 had DOI links. These types of links do not disappear, that’s the point of DOI links.

Here we see ChatGPT creating bogus citations with bad links: https://youtu.be/y51t_138d4Y

Here is a screenshot of junk citations including DOI links:
