Is it quite critical? Peer review is not checking homework, it's about the novel contribution presented. Papers will frequently cite related notable experiments or introduce a problem that as a peer reviewer in the field I'm already well familiar with. These paragraphs generate many citations but are the least important part of a peer review.

(People submitting AI slop should still be ostracized of course, if you can't be bothered to read it, why would you think I should)

Fair point. In my mind it is critical because mistakes are common and can only be fixed by a peer. But you are right that we should not miss the forest through the trees and get lost on small details.

It's going to be even worse than 50:

> Given that we've only scanned 300 out of 20,000 submissions, we estimate that we will find 100s of hallucinated papers in the coming days.

20,000 submissions to a single conference? That is nuts

Checking each citation one by one is quite critical in peer review, and of course checking a colleagues paper. I’ve never had to deal with AI slop, but you’ll definitely see something cited for the wrong reason. And just the other day during the final typesetting of a paper of mine I found the journal had messed up a citation (same journal / author but wrong work!)

It’s a shame because “improve an off the shelf llm ti translate in line with this large dataset we prepared” is precisely the kind of project people love to work on. It could have been a chance to immortalize the hard work they did up until now.

If there really is enough market demand for this kind of processor, it seems like someone like NEC who still makes vector processors would be better poised than a startup rolling RISC-V

that was the case. you can find the base write up and the prompt used in one of my comments on this post.

i did not have much time to work on this at all, being in the middle of a product launch at my work, and a bunch of other 'life' stuff.

thanks for understanding.

> Man must sucks to be her, limelight is still on Trump, truly a showman.

She did dedicate this prize to Trump [1]:

> I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!

She is a vocal Trump supporter after all [2].

That’s the irony of the situation. This should’ve been a clear win for Trump, using the prize to help bolster his status and direction on Venezuela. But then we got this absurd media storyline about him wanting the prize himself (probably to bury the government shut down news).
