The Urgency Inflation Problem In Ai-Generated Promotions, Pranav Bhatnagar Mr

Defensive Publications Series

Generative AI systems are increasingly embedded within modern marketing pipelines, enabling organizations to produce high volumes of promotional copy with minimal human intervention. While these systems significantly improve content velocity and engagement optimization, they also introduce a subtle but material compliance and trust risk. In many real-world deployments, AI-generated marketing language exhibits amplified urgency signals such as artificial scarcity, time pressure framing, and exaggerated limited-availability claims that are not always proportionate to actual campaign constraints. Because these systems are frequently optimized for conversion performance, they may systematically favor phrasing that heightens perceived urgency even when supporting inventory, timing, or promotional …

Ai-Generated Copy Risk: Detecting Persuasive But Misleading Marketing Content, Pranav Bhatnagar Mr

Defensive Publications Series

Generative AI systems are increasingly used to produce marketing copy at scale, enabling rapid content creation across advertising, product descriptions, and customer engagement channels. While these systems improve efficiency and linguistic quality, they introduce a growing compliance risk: AI-generated content may appear highly persuasive while containing exaggerated, unsupported, or contextually misleading claims. Such outputs can expose organizations to regulatory scrutiny, brand trust erosion, and downstream legal liability. This disclosure introduces a detection framework for AI-Generated Copy Risk, focused on identifying persuasive marketing language that exceeds verifiable product support or approved messaging boundaries. The proposed system analyzes claim intensity, evidentiary grounding, …

The Ai Trust Mirage: Detecting When Confident Outputs Betray Reality, Pranav Bhatnagar Mr

Defensive Publications Series

Large language models increasingly generate responses that are fluent, structured, and delivered with strong apparent confidence. While this improves usability, it introduces a subtle operational risk: users often interpret linguistic certainty as evidence strength. In practice, model confidence signals and underlying factual support are not always aligned. This disclosure introduces the concept of the AI Trust Mirage, a condition in which AI outputs appear highly reliable despite weak, missing, or poorly grounded supporting evidence. The proposed framework detects confidence–evidence mismatch by jointly analyzing linguistic certainty markers, response structure, citation grounding, and contextual support signals. A composite Mirage Risk Score (MRS) …

Faculty Research 2026

Each year, influenza A virus (IAV) infection of the lung causes half a million deaths worldwide. Patients with compromised immunity experience distinct influenza pathogenesis; however, most IAV-related research is done with wild-type mice or people who are otherwise healthy. We utilize a model of immunocompromised recombination-activating gene 1 (Rag1)-knockout (KO) mice to discover natural killer (NK) cell activation and regulation mechanisms during IAV infection. The treatment of IAV-challenged Rag1-KO mice with a monoclonal antibody (mAb) targeting programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) triggers NK cell-intrinsic signaling of PD-L1 and significantly delays lethality. This treatment upregulates tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand on …
