And those students then using AI to write assignments, so they never learn to research, evaluate data, & then write academic papers for themselves, and therefore have to rely on AI to write professional articles throughout their career...

I've realised AI is nothing more than a pyramid scheme.

What consequences do they get for falsifying references? It should be a professional punishment, like if an engineered were found to have faked the calculations for a building's safety. Banned from submitting to this and associated journals for a year or more, to start with.

Happened to me as well. Half of the references in a submission to a top journal in my field were clearly hallucinated. The content was however plausible, even if somewhat incremental. Immediate reject.

It baffles me to think that it doesn’t even dawn on them that a third party won’t recognize that references are falsified.’

At what point must something give?
