Precise statement
Baumslag asked whether a one-relator group $G=F/\langle\langle r\rangle\rangle$ with $r$ a commutator is Hopfian, residually finite or automatic. The paper constructs a family $G_m=\langle a,t \mid [t,a[a,t]^{-m}]\rangle$ answering all three negatively.

What AI did
ChatGPT
The paper's disclosure is a single sentence: ChatGPT assisted in constructing the examples. The examples are the result, but 'assisted' does not say how much, so the lowest tier applies.
