AISTATS 2024 paper reviews are supposed to be out today. I thought to create a discussion thread for us to discuss any issue/complain/celebration or anything else.
There is so much noise in the reviews every year. Some good work that the authors are proud of might get a low score because of the noisy system, given that AISTATS is growing large these years. We should keep in mind that the work is still valuable no matter what the score is.
Question for people who have reviewed before (this was my first time reviewing): It seems like reviewers don’t see other reviewers’ comments on the same paper, unlike NeurIPS. Will this change after the author response time? Otherwise how are the reviewers meant to discuss things?
