This might seem far fetched for people who do not know how Machine 
Learning works - but it is not impossible that the suggested code it 
comes up with is in whole or in a very large part someone's actually 
published work.

My own brother encountered this when quotes from his text book on 
air-surface interaction in boundary layer meteorology showed up in 
students' work *that could be traced back* to the use of AI tools.
