Abstract

In this article, the authors, in the context of the devastating effects that the proliferation of “fake news” is causing in all areas of society, deal with the ethical challenges and limits that falsification in the representation of knowledge. That is, what we might call “fake pictures” currently poses to the scientific community and the journalistic profession. In the conclusions, they emphasize the urgent need to demystify scientific activity and promote contemporary scientific culture from the perspective of knowledge representation.
