On: Scientists aghast at AI rat with genitals in peer-...

Will the people that did the peer reviews be sanctioned in any way? Seems so blatant that it doesn't look like it was actually reviewed at all.

To me, this is the real question. One of the purposes of the peer-review is to validate and verify results, which was clearly not done to a great extent here. Perhaps the reviewers were also using some type of AI?

The reviewers are cited as part of the publication:

Binsila B. Krishnan, National Institute of Animal Nutrition and Physiology (ICAR), India

Jingbo Dai, Northwestern Medicine, United States

From a quick Google, they appear to be real people.

Frontiers has an explicit rule against that, although I doubt any reviewer would admit to it.

Perhaps the reviewer was an AI. Which gives a new spin to 'peer review'.

makes sense, because the peer of AI can only be AI
