It's alarming that NeurIPS papers are being rejected based on "ethics reviews". How do we guard against ideological biases in such reviews? Since when are scientific conferences in the business of policing the perceived ethics of technical papers?

Decline to publish or provide a platform doesn't suppress the work and isn't censorship.

It effectively does, and so it effectively is.

Why doesn't this exact same argument justify publishing technically incorrect papers? After all, research papers are speech.

Most journals have requirements similar to those imposed by the funding agencies. Here's Nature's: https://www.nature.com/nature-research/editorial-policies/ethics-and-biosecurity …

Notice that those requirements are for very specific cases.

So rejecting a paper based on e.g. lack of novelty is ok but rejecting a paper for ethical issues is censorship and therefore wrong?

The point is that I'm willing to delegate the first but not the second.

Using your logic, I have come to believe all conferences, journalists and journals are censoring me for not promoting my ideas far and wide!

My dude, no. It’s not JUST for funding decisions.


Do you even know any ethicists? (Actual trained people, not people calling their beliefs ethics.) Do you know what they DO? Because from your behavior here, that answer is a pretty clear no -
Oh my god, you’re at
@uw. You have bloody fucking excellent ethicists across the spectrum, including folks working on tech ethics. You have ZERO excuse for your ignorance & I am embarrassed you represent my alma mater in ANYTHING.
