'Prompt Injection' is everywhere. While it's cheeky, you can't help but feel it's a fair countermeasure. If the academic publishing world is so overwhelmed that reviewers are resorting to AI, maybe the system itself is the real problem.

The only people affected are the lazy reviewers who weren't doing their job properly to begin with.
