I liked this thoughtful article about q.e.d‘s AI Review and our collaboration with @openrxiv.bsky.social (biorxiv) in @nature.com. Yes, AI is here to stay and we need to get ready. One important note that was missing in this piece: we intentionally made qed an authors-centric tool (see more below) 👇
@nature.com asked me to write an op-ed on the perspective of the AI reviewing process, prompted by the recent partnership between @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social and @qedscience.bsky.social
Hope my perspective adds value to the conversation.

AI reviewers are here — we are not ready
Artificial intelligence promises rapid and polite feedback on papers — but we must first review the reviewer.

How often do you write reviews just because you have a good title? While I swore I won't write review for a while I'm tempted to write "There’s no plate like home" (on why it's important to study worms in the wild)

I saw it as a tool to teach critical and structured reading of papers, especially early in one’s career or when the topic is outside one’s expertise. I therefore recommended that the students try it themselves. Thank you for developing such a great tool.

YES!!!
I used it for my journal club teaching session. Great experience — it brought up additional points beyond what I initially wanted to highlight to the students.

Do you do journal clubs in your lab? if you run the paper you're presenting in @qedscience.bsky.social (it's great for finding -problems) please let me know! I'd love to echo the discussion here, and compare your insights about the paper with q.e.d's comments #qedjournalclub

I wish to introduce CARDIB, not the singer, but the protein.
CARDIB=CARD Inhibitory Binding protein.
In our new work we discover this antiviral protein that is found in all Anthozoa (sea anemones and corals 🪸) but not in other animals.
