Major conference catches illicit AI use — and rejects hundreds of papers The papers’ watermarks allowed organizers to detect use of large language models in peer review.

"If a researcher used an LLM to generate their peer review, instructions hidden in the watermark prompted the LLM to include telltale phrases in the review text. The presence of these phrases revealed that an AI model had been used to generate the review."

Our Ivan Oransky is honored to be testifying Monday at the Canadian Parliament House of Commons' Standing Committee on Science and Research on "Governance and Accountability of Federal Science Policy and Institutions." Tune in.

And this report - an interesting and worthwhile read from @samuelmoore.org et al.! - is hosted on KC Works, the platform I oversee as Technical Lead for @kcommons.bsky.social.

It's gratifying to see the infrastructures I build and maintain in use, making humanities scholarship available for all.
