This is what happened when AI acted as both author and reviewer - a study found AI peer-reviewers accepted fake AI-generated papers 4 out of 5 times. We need #PeerReview to be better, and human oversight is more vital than ever!

True story:
Nature comms Editor when asking for #PeerReview: Please return review within 10-14 days.
Nature Comms editor when asked about r2 paper in review for 70(!) days: sorry, we’ll return to you in a week or so.
Then they'll charge you $6.8K to publish YOUR work.
System is broken.

Should #PeerReview in STEM be paid work? I'd think so. I read this blog with fair reasoning. #AcademicSky #Science #EduSky

I also found a journal article which tried this exact thing and found benefits: doi.org/10.1257/jep....

I do peer review and I want you to pay me four hundred and fifty dollars. I’ll even say please.

Absolutely chuffed to have two peer reviewers suggest no corrections or revisions for my latest chapter draft on #museums and #archaeology exhibitions. Looking forward to seeing it out there in the world soon 🥳

Here’s another example how scientific publishing is broken.
Reviewers often asked to comment on what they do NOT know.
For most Journals, #PeerReview is not a means of ensuring quality of content published - it is a signal of exclusivity.
And we all donate our time willfully.
