1. Can large language models provide useful feedback on research papers? A large-scale empirical analysis (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…
2. Measuring the Evolution of a Scientific Field through Citation Frames (2018 · 314 citations)
   Citation counts usually treat every reference as equal, but authors cite earlier work for very different purposes.
3. Monitoring AI-Modified Content at Scale: A Case Study on the Impact of ChatGPT on AI Conference Peer Reviews (2024 · 119 citations)
   Detecting LLM-written text one document at a time is unreliable, and humans perform barely better than chance at it.
