Would love to learn more! This sounds like a great idea that should be more widely known

They're peer-reviewed but Neurips accepted 6% of the track submissions (hence likely ignoring a lot of reviewers). I'm not sure if anyone knows what they're doing, on any side here .......

OK the good news is that what urgent care deems linguistically a (avulsion) fracture is conceptually just a sprain according to orthopedics. Woohoo! Chatgpt still refuses to read my x-rays though. Urgent care is basically learning to defer I guess

I'm trying to put a positive spin on this bc no one likes negativity (I have a very visible excuse for my lectures to be boring) but jeez. I just roll with the punches at this point. Hope ortho clears me soon

Personally, my complaint is that a 6% acceptance rate is a huge strain on the already strained peer review system - at that point, ask for pitches (that can be selected and developed, then sent out for full review), not full papers.

Yes, that was just definitionally kafkaesque .... The thrashing in between the paper tracks, paper-writers responding to what they interpreted as an open call, and preprint venues is not good 😬

unfettered enthusiasm for AI/LLMs is also going to destroy institutions that CS holds dear

This is just for reviews/surveys (which apparently have been increasing in volume) and position papers

But the same question holds for extrapolating out what happens with llm-written technical papers too!!

If you’ve had issues of this kind with cs.CY, you should always feel free to appeal. Mods for the categories are, from my experience, both well-trained and read widely in their areas, and understand the norms of relevant disciplines pretty well!
