Very interesting thread. Perhaps a possible solution to the never ending quest of finding qualified reviewers for papers

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 🧵

The responses to this post are almost as shocking as the picture itself. Scientists who need animals for their work must adhere to strict ethical standards and respect them. There are many ways to advance medicine and subjecting mice to this level of harm isn't one of them.

"All animal experiments were carried out according to Institutional Animal Care Guidelines and were ethically approved by the Administration Committee of Experimental Animals, with the approval of Nantong University, Jiangsu, China." 🤡
