Abstract

Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to review academic papers is happening and cannot be ignored by journals. There is a need to find a balance between outright banning and uncontrolled usage. Medical Teacher recognises this need, and this commentary views the problem within the general context of authorship, discusses some of the problems surrounding AI-reviewing, and offers a middle ground of practice and disclosure that will assist authors, reviewers, and the journal in ensuring that the review process is not compromised.
