Associate Professor of Management Alex Murray will present on his work "More Versus Better: Artificial Intelligence, Incentives, and the Emerging Crisis in Peer Review," written with coauthors Claudine Gartenberg, Sharique Hasan, and Lamar Pierce, to be published in a forthcoming volume of Organization Science.

As the AI task force for Organization Science, Murray and his coauthors explored the impact of artificial intelligence on both submissions and reviews at a major academic journal. To their knowledge, Organization Science is the first journal to report these early impacts of AI in the review process.

Submission volume has risen 42 percent since the release of ChatGPT in 2022, while writing quality has declined. The rise in AI-generated writing accounts for nearly all of these trends. AI-generated writing in reviews has also increased, and is characterized by lower writing quality and less topical diversity than human-generated writing.

At this early stage of AI adoption, the team cannot make a normative assessment about appropriate or ideal levels of AI usage. They can, however, conclude that the current state of AI tools, amplified by existing publish-or-perish incentives, appears to be pushing the system toward an equilibrium of more rather than better research. Reaching an equilibrium in which AI serves as a critical engine of innovation will require that institutions and the incentive structures they create adapt.
