> Writing reviews isn’t, like, a test or anything. You don’t get graded on it. So I think it is wrong to think of this tool as cheating.
Except that since last year, it kind of is. It is now mandatory for some large conferences (such as CVPR) for authors to do reviews if they submit a paper. Failure to review, or reviews that are neglectful, can lead to a desk reject of their submission.
