Yeah absolutely, but researchers who are attempting skirt review processes to only receice positive feedback are not respecting the process.
What's to respect in an AI review where they didn't even review the output. It's an LLM lazy review. Deserves to be gamed.
Yes, the reviewers should not be using it. The researcher shouldnt be submitting it with the intention of gaming it.
AI is not all LLM chat bots, there are legitimate AI implementations used in research.
