The HN submission title is incorrect.

> Before being considered for submission to arXiv’s CS category, review articles and position papers must now be accepted at a journal or a conference and complete successful peer review.

Edit: original title was "arXiv No Longer Accepts Computer Science Position or Review Papers Due to LLMs"

refined title:

ArXiv CS requires peer review for surveys amid flood of AI-written ones

- nothing happened to preprints

- "summarization" articles always required it, they are just pointing at it out loud

Agree. Additionally, original title, "arXiv No Longer Accepts Computer Science Position or Review Papers Due to LLMs" is ambiguous. “Due to LLMs” is being interpreted as articles written by LLMs, which is not accurate.

We've reverted it now.

Isn't arXiv where you upload things before they have gone through the entire process? Isn't that the entire value, aside from some publisher cartel busting?

I don’t know about this. From a pure entertainment standpoint, we may be denying ourselves a world of hilarity. LLMs + “You know Peter, I’m something of a research myself” delusions. I’d pay for this so long as people are very serious about the delusion.
