How much published AI research is wrong because of data leakage?

There is a Princeton paper by Kapoor and Narayanan. They found data leakage in close to 300 papers across 17 fields, including medicine and economics. Leakage means the model was trained on information it would never have when it makes a real prediction. So it looks great on the test set and then fails in the real world. My favorite example is civil war prediction. Complex models were reported to crush old logistic regression. Once the leakage was fixed, the fancy models were no better than the decades old stats. I have built enough models to know how easy this is to do by accident. You scale the data before you split it, or you use one feature that is really a stand in for the answer, and your numbers look amazing. So now when I read another "AI cracked X" headline, my first thought is whether anyone checked it for leakage.
