Already halfway through the fantastic @ecvp.bsky.social conference in Mainz!
It started beautifully with the Perception Lecture given by Astrid Kappers.
Looking forward to reading the paper linked to the lecture that will be published in Perception!

I really appreciated @mamassian.bsky.social's editorial in @pec-ipe.bsky.social about using LLMs for peer review. The review process faces serious challenges, to be sure: I don't know anyone who hasn't struggled to find reviewers these days. Still, we can't ignore the issues raised here.
