Discouraging to work for hours on a peer review and open up the reviewer comments to find that the other two reviewers clearly just used GenAI and called it a day. There's always been a huge discrepancy in how much work people put into these, but this is pretty bad.

Busy times between quarters with some travel and prepping for a new-to-me course, topped off with no fewer than *six* journal review invitations in two days! Sorry to my editor friends - today's going to be a day of lots and lots of 'no's. 😔
