A large-scale empirical analysis](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/liang-2023-large-language-models-provide/)** *(2023 · 332 citations)* Rising submission volumes make it harder to get timely, high-quality critique of manuscripts. ICLR submissions, for example, grew from 960 in 2018 to 4,966 in 2023. Junior and under-resourced researchers are hit hardest. The authors test whether GPT-4 can supply useful reviewer-style comments. Their pipeline parses a…
