petersuber, 10 months ago (edited 10 months ago) Update. The US #NIH and Australian Research Council (#ARC) have banned the use of #AI tools for the #PeerReview of grant proposals. The #NSF is studying the question. https://www.science.org/content/article/science-funding-agencies-say-no-using-ai-peer-review (#paywalled) Apart from #quality, one concern is #confidentiality. If grant proposals become part of a tool's training data, there's no telling (in the NIH's words) “where data are being sent, saved, viewed, or used in the future.” #Funders
