A tied-in image captures the argument: saving peer review from AI slop may require getting rid of anonymous submissions and anonymous reviews.
The broader claim is that the current review system’s anonymity makes it easier for low-quality AI-generated reviewing to spread, and that fixing the problem may require structural changes to publication culture rather than just better prompts or filters.
