I am not saying LLM-base software is not useful. For instance, you can use it to verify claims made on HN:

  What we find is sobering. Submission volume has risen by 42% since November 2022. At the same time, submission writing quality also began to decline at the end of 2022, with Flesch Reading Ease (a standard measure of writing quality) 1.28 standard deviations (SD) lower in January 2026 relative to January 2021. Submissions that are heavily AI-generated account for nearly all of these trends. The quality of reviews has also dropped sharply since November 2022, driven by an increase in heavily AI-generated reviews. These reviews, in addition to being of worse quality, are also narrower in their emphasis, focusing more on theory and less on data. In short, more research is being submitted, with more AI writing that is lower in quality—not better.[1]

AI researchers themselves are saying that gaming the peer-review system with barrage of AI is extremely frustrating and pointless:

  Peer review is unpaid work that we do (often on nights and weekends) because peer review on our own work is so valuable. Spending hours going through a submission and then realizing that there are hallucinated citations is infuriating as it is a waste of our time! If you haven’t spent enough time with your work to even get the references correct, then a.) why should we spend time reviewing it for you, and b.) what are you hoping to accomplish with the submission in the first place? Learning from reviews requires reflecting on your work, and you need to spend time with your work in order to do this.[2]

There’s also serious concern whether the peer-review can survive the slop-era [3]. So excuse me if I found your comment on ”better English” and ”great for scientific research” rather amusing. It’s like shooting yourself in the foot and celebrating how much you will save on shoes.
