Comment on Half the papers at NIPS would be rejected if the review process were rerun

Comments

For those who didn't read the story: NIPS decided to run this experiment themselves to identify problems.

That's a a really brave thing to do, and deserves serious credit.

Absolutely, it's hugely important. The core idea that subjective beings will disagree holds obvious weight, but it takes serious commitment to improving the process to offer up this kind of experiment to prove it.

Exactly, the same credit mimicking cognition along vector comparison deserves.
