arXiv caps submissions at two papers per month amid AI-driven surge

arXiv will limit every author to two submissions per month starting October 1, 2026, as monthly submissions topped 40,000 and doubled in two years, partly due to AI-generated papers. The cap aims to fairly allocate moderation resources while it improves screening tools for AI-assisted writing.
