Economist Paul Novosad proposes a 4-step AI-assisted peer review workflow
paulnovosad · x · 2026-11-09
Development economist Paul Novosad suggests that under time constraints, the best expert paper review workflow is roughly four steps: the expert reads the intro and forms their own ideas first; then asks a good AI model for its top 3 critiques; discusses with the AI and cross-checks against the paper; finally the expert judges which critiques are substantive and writes the report. The idea: AI generates candidate objections, the expert adjudicates.
