as a founder of @RefineDotInk, discussion around this new paper is v. interesting! The results confirm that AI reviews are incredible for detailed, actionable feedback to improve a manuscript. If AI is better, should AI replace human review? Quick view from the trenches 1/

Theoretical Computer Science inherited an aesthetic for open problems from mathematics. Algorithms and computers are complex, and understanding them mathematically is difficult. The open-problem tradition has made TCS’s challenges clear and research easy-ish to evaluate. 1/7

See the impressive research agenda that @CeLiuEcon has built applying these ideas to matching, incl his job market paper in TE and his recent AEJ-Micro with Ziwei Wang and Hanzhe Zhang. Working with him is a blast. More people should do it. Link: celiu.net
