Luca De Fiore, Chief Executive Officer of Il Pensiero Scientifico Editore, shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper by Tiffany I. Leung published in JAMA Network Open:

‘This article is excellent, I recommend accepting without revision.’

A question remains in the background: Okay, the chatbot referee suffers from bias. But what reliability do human referees, on the other hand, guarantee?”
