The deans are making a powerful claim that the formula used by U.S. News rewards wealth and privilege by subtly penalizing law schools that seek to provide access to the legal profession for people from less privileged backgrounds and help prepare their graduates for careers in public service.
这些院长们做出了强有力的声明，他们认为该排名采用的计算方法通过巧妙地惩罚那些试图为出身不那么优越的人提供进入法律行业的机会，并帮助他们的毕业生为公共服务职业做准备的法学院，来偏袒财富和特权。

Efforts to ease the workloads of peer reviewers by using artificial intelligence (AI) are gathering pace — with one country’s main research-evaluation exercise actively looking into ways of harnessing the technology. A study commissioned by the United Kingdom’s main public research-funding bodies is examining how algorithms can assist in conducting peer review on journal articles submitted to the UK’s Research Excellence Framework (REF)

人们正在加快脚步，利用人工智能来减轻同行评议者的工作量——一个国家的主要研究评估工作正积极地寻找利用这种技术的方法。由英国主要公共研究资助机构委托开展的一项研究，正在研究对于那些提交给英国研究卓越框架的期刊文章，可以如何利用算法帮助开展同行评议。
The funders that carry out the REF handed over peer-review data from just under 150,000 scientific papers to Mike Thelwall, a data scientist at the University of Wolverhampton, UK. These papers had been evaluated as part of the latest REF. Such data, outlining scores given to individual journal articles, are usually destroyed. But the funders gave Thelwall and his colleagues access first.

推行研究卓越框架的投资人将近15万篇科研文章的同行评议数据交给了英国伍尔弗汉普顿大学的数据科学家迈克•塞尔沃尔。这些文章作为最新的研究卓越框架参考文献的一部分，已经得到了评估。这些标注了每篇期刊文章获得的分数的数据通常会被销毁。但是投资人把数据获取权限给了塞尔沃尔和他的同事们。
Anna Severin, a health consultant in Munich, Germany, who has used AI to analyse the peer-review process itself, goes further: “I don’t think AI should replace peer review,” or parts of it, she says. Severin, who works at management consultancy Capgemini Invent, worries that people could become overly reliant on algorithms and misuse AI tools. “All the administrative tasks and the processes surrounding and supporting the actual peer-review process — that’s really an area where AI and machine learning could help with reducing workload.”

One possible application of AI could be to find suitable peer reviewers — often a difficult task, and one fraught with biases and conflicts of interest. Recent analyses have shown that researchers are increasingly declining peer-review requests. This is especially true of a select minority who are constantly bombarded with such requests.

人工智能一个或许可行的应用是找到合适的同行审稿人——这通常是一项艰巨的任务，充满了偏见和利益冲突。最近的分析表明，越来越多的研究人员拒绝同行评审的邀请。对于那些不停地受到此类要求轰炸的少数人来说，情况尤其如此。
Thelwall says that although it is theoretically possible to use AI to find referees, this was not in the remit of his current project. “Some of the panel members, particularly the chairs, spend a lot of time allocating individual panel members to the outputs,” he notes.

塞尔沃尔表示，尽管理论上来讲，利用人工智能寻找评议员是具有可能性的，但这并不在他目前的研究项目范围内。他指出：“一些评议组成员，尤其是主席，在给文章分配小组成员上面花费了大量的时间。”
