Academic protest: reviewers caught using AI to auto-generate peer reviews
TuhinChakr · x · 2026-11-08
A circulating statement screenshot alleges that numerous signs strongly suggest some reviewers are relying entirely on AI tools to automatically generate peer reviews instead of personally reading and evaluating manuscripts.
The protest is blunt: this is gross disrespect to authors, a flagrant desecration of the reviewer's sacred duty, and fundamentally undermines the integrity of the entire peer-review process—another flashpoint as AI floods academic publishing.
