The journal uses the Transparent Peer Review system. I didn't put my name in the Comments to the author but I did agree to something like "I want my name visible in the TRP". So if the paper gets accepted my name will be linked to my open review. But will it be known to the authors at this stage? #openreview #openscience

“OpenReview’s backend obligingly returned the full, de-anonymized profiles of reviewers, authors, and area chairs, not just for ICLR 2026, but for any conference hosted on the platform.
Double-blind review, the sacred cow of CS publishing, had just become Naked Review.”

A Message from AI Research Leaders: Join Us in Supporting OpenReview
(https://openreview.net/forum/pineau|a_message_from_ai_research_leaders_join_us_in_supporting_openreview)
First, I appreciate OpenReview because they provide a way to organise conference submissions and reviews to Bioc and EuroBioc conferences.
That would be the reason I would consider supporting them.
NOT because AI conferences benefit from it.
If OpenReview is so central to AI< why can't any of the AI companies not donate a tiny drop of their funds to guarantee OpenReview sustainability for the forthcoming future?
I now had to check that OpenReview wasn't using our reviews to train AI models - I could see any indication they do.

A thought from 2016.
It took us nine years and a bit. In retrospect, I think we held out pretty long.
@krismicinski Oh wow. In my pile of around 12 papers for AAAI (I'm senior PC) I missed about 9 (out of 36) reviews yesterday (12h before the AoE deadline just now) from regular PC members. Extrapolating to 23,000 papers / 69,000 reviews, people are trying to upload 17,000+ reviews as we speak ...
