Even little Haiku found about twice as many major errors as human reviewers.
Lots of debate this week on whether journals should ban AI in peer review.
We actually tested this in our new preprint, and the results were pretty clear to me.
For context, I've reviewed for most of the big journals and evaluated 1,000 human reviews as an editor. I love to read and evaluate science.
TLDR: From now on I won't do any peer review without AI. For clinical trials, I'd even call human-only review dangerous 🧵

Philomena: Some people have been writing PHP for over 20 years. Is that because it's particularly difficult to finish?
Expert: No, software is constantly evolving.
Philomena: So they've been writing the same website for 20 years?
Expert: No, different projects.
Philomena: Have they tried finishing one before starting another?
Expert: That's not how software development works.
Philomena: My mate Paul spent 20 years building a shed. Turned out he was just an alcoholic.
Expert: Right.
Philomena: Is PHP like that?

The sublime arrogance of this knows no bounds.
“Nobody wants to see your junk” — says the guy who burnt countless billions of tokens on a project that breathlessly claimed to be a new frontier but ended up serving one purpose: to build itself (gastown).
No one has the right to condemn your excitement for new avenues of creativity.
Ignore influencers who shit in your general direction with statements like “It needs to be said” suggesting it’s spoken from some kind of ordained privilege.
Create. Share. Enjoy.
