This is going to be the concrete block which finally breaks the back of the academic peer review system, i.e. it's going to be a DDoS attack on a system which didn't even handle the load before LLMs.
Maybe we'll need to go back to some sort of proof-of-work system, i.e. only accepting physical mailed copies of manuscripts, possibly hand-written...
- make3 8mo agoOverleaf basically already has the same thing
- 4gotunameagain 8mo ago> i.e. only accepting physical mailed copies of manuscripts, possibly hand-written... And you think the indians will not hand write the output of LLMs ? Not that I have a better suggestion myself..
- haspok 8mo ago> This is going to be the concrete block which finally breaks the back of the academic peer review system Exactly, and I think this is good news. Let's break it so we can fix at last. Nothing will happen until a real crisis emerges.
- port11 8mo agoDisrupting a system without good proposals for its replacement sounds like a recipe for disaster.

- suddenlybananas 8mo agoThere's problems with the medical system, therefore we should set hospitals on fire to motivate them to make them better.
- reciprocity 8mo agoVery myopic comment.
- boxed 8mo agoHandwriting is super easy to fake with plotters.
- eternauta3k 8mo agoIs there something out there to simulate the non-uniformity and errors of real handwriting?
- aembleton 8mo agoMaybe Open AI will sell you 'Lens' which will assist with sorting through the submissions and narrow down the papers worth reviewing.
- thomasahle 8mo agoI tried Prism, but it's actually a lot more work than just using claude code. The latter allows you to "vibe code" your paper with no manual interaction, while Prism actually requires you review every change. I actually think Prism promotes a much more responsible approach to AI writing than "copying from chatgpt" or the likes.
- csomar 8mo agoThat will just create a market for hand-writers. Good thing the economy is doing very well right, so there aren't that many desperate people who will do it en-masse and for peanuts.
- jltsiren 8mo agoOr it makes gatekeepers even more important than before. Every submission to a journal will be desk-rejected, unless it is vouched for by someone one of the editors trusts. And people won't even look at a new paper, unless it's vouched for by someone / published in a venue they trust.
