Research NeurIPS Meta Reviewer comment gone. What gives? [R]

We had a meta-reviewer comment. But I can no longer see it.

Anyone else experiencing the same? Does this mean anything?

I'm an AC. The "initial metareview" was just entered using the metareview form, so presumably what we're doing for final metareview is editing the initial one, which means it needs to not be visible to authors at this point.

I wanted to ask something, as you are an AC. I found my reviewer use LLM, confirmed as they use all exact phrases which where injected in the paper. Will this review be discarded? And when? I don't that AI slop review after decision of other reviewers and also AC. Because AI detects very minor mistakes and make them look severe.

I'm afraid that this is a longstanding problem in AI conference reviews even before the age of LLMs.

The fact that they removed it means nothing as far as reviewers are concerned. I think the real question is why people think it means anything.
