Dozens denied oath of allegiance at Indianapolis naturalization ceremony
Ryan Murphy
from Indianapolis Star
Dec. 10, 2025, 6:20 a.m. ET
As people made their way into the Indianapolis Union Station for a naturalization ceremony, federal officials stopped certain applicants and told them that they wouldn't be leaving the building with U.S. citizenship.The immigrants — who had already passed every step in the long naturalization process — needed only to take the oath of allegiance Dec. 9, 2025, to become citizens. A federal directive handed down by U.S. Immigration and Customs Services on Dec. 2, however, made that impossible for more than one third of people signed up for the Indianapolis ceremony.
Zhibo Zhao, a US Citizenship and Immigration Services official present at the event, said oaths of allegiance for 38 of the 100 participants were "canceled."

I came across this on mastodon too. A post linking a blog piece I thought misrepresented a political philosopher, so I checked the citations - which made no sense. I replied to the post - and the author said they were compiled using AI.
The minimum we need is a warning that AI has been used for such things - so we know not to waste time taking the results seriously.

in reply to Francisca Sinn • • •I know, right? I managed to inoculate myself against the hype almost from the start by asking ChatGPT 3.5 questions about something I knew well, and getting unambiguous confabulated bullshit in response. I then saw plenty of other confabulated bullshit in other topics, all of which I could easily verify was bullshit. My own take on all that — all in the first few months of ChatGPT’s public release — was “it gets numerous easily verified facts wrong, so it is *not trustworthy* on anything”. It was astonishing to see so few other people I know come to the same conclusion.

I don’t use it for drafting because my clients expect 25 years of experience, not common answers. Resulting value to me: zero.

So why the quotation marks? They convey that the statement is subject to opinion. Now, if they're reporting eye-witness accounts, ok, the evidence comes from a source that can't be checked. But in this case the citations are clearly visible and checkable. They could check them and find them fake. Why not?
