We recently received a referee report from Phys. Rev. Lett. @apsphysics.bsky.social that was obviously written by generative AI. It is so bizarre to read it; I have never received anything like it before. What measures is @apsphysics.bsky.social taking to ensure the integrity of the review process?

Both stop work orders on my two grants have now been released. Unfortunately, the agency for one grant reallocated the funds, so likely those won't come back.
This has gone on for seven months now, and there was no clear point to any of it. I am grateful to colleagues for stepping in to help out.

Physical Review has indicated in a paper proof that they have their own style for author contribution statements. This style consists of massacring our statement, by repeating "formal analysis" multiple times & unnecessarily capitalizing phrases. Why does APS consistently have such poor copyediting?
