AI Advances Academic Peer Review and Reproducibility Checks

A manual review of 105 papers reveals that reproducibility failures are mostly due to engineering issues like missing code rather than model limitations. Researchers suggest that AI code agents could soon automate the detection of such errors, providing actionable feedback to improve the flawed academic peer-review system.
