I really appreciated @mamassian.bsky.social's editorial in @pec-ipe.bsky.social about using LLMs for peer review. The review process faces serious challenges, to be sure: I don't know anyone who hasn't struggled to find reviewers these days. Still, we can't ignore the issues raised here.

"And just like microwaves are now mostly used to reheat old meals, LLMs mostly regurgitate some old text that they were trained on. This is hardly what we expect when we ask reviewers to critically evaluate the quality of an original manuscript."
Definitely worth a read 💭
