Stanford Prof argues human+AI collaborative peer review beats three human reviewers

Stanford professor Anshul Kundaje debates AI in peer review: fully pre-delegating thinking to AI biases you and erodes your own reasoning, so use it after thinking and writing yourself. But he argues banning AI in review is unenforceable—incentivize honest disclosure instead—and that human+AI collaborative review with author back-and-forth beats the traditional three-reviewer model. His interlocutor proposes journal-run AI review with human reviewers barred from AI.
