You have documented how large language models (LLMs) risk hardwiring scientific inequalities into the texts that they help to produce (see, for example, Nature 645, 285; 2025). As the use of LLMs spreads, it becomes more likely that some voices will be treated as central and others as peripheral. But the risks go further — these biases might affect the way that scholars from low-income countries formulate and frame their own science.
