abursuc · x · 2026-08-04

The author jokes that the current NeurIPS conference season has essentially become the 'NeurIPS Summer of OpenReview Scrolling.' This humorously roasts the phenomenon in modern AI academic research, where researchers and reviewers spend an exhausting amount of time endlessly reading and responding to peer reviews on the OpenReview platform.
