We analyzed 30+ years of data on academic peer review.

Here’s what we found:

The system meant to protect science is often inconsistent, sometimes biased, and surprisingly poor at its core job:

Catching bad science.

Brace yourself. The data is insane 🧵👇 Let’s start with the basics:

Peer review is meant to be science’s immune system- filtering out weak research before it spreads.

But in practice?

Sometimes it behaves more like a sleep-deprived customs agent, waving through the wrong luggage.

And the data backs it up:

Introducing the world's first all-AI written (no human involved) 203-page book on how tiny SaaS startups can get to the top!

Coming next week: Deepwriter will unveal many new features. Among them is optimization for OpenAI's new prompt caching. But this doesn't mean as much caching as possible! This is Deepwriter. You expect more from us. Cache like a master prompt whisperer! A thread on how: 👇 In agentic flows, there are stages where we don't want caching! To the contrary, we want a new approach from the start. For example, when we need to retry a step after a syntax error, caching is easiest to do simply rerunning prompt + syntax error.

OMG! GPT-4o is really really really good with scientific writing! This is a game changer.

I used my Deep Writer (a massive agent system which writes anything of any length, aiming for professional human quality).

This is the closest that I or anyone may have come. Results:👇🧵 The Deep Writer is no weekend project. I have spent 8 months perfecting it. It's around 12k lines of code, makes 100s of API calls per job.

It takes a single prompt, the agents get to work, and 30-60 minutes later you have a completed novel/script/paper/article/whatever.
