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?
NeurIPS currently requires a section on ethical implications and review by an ethics board for all papers. Patently absurd.

This doesn't seem like it's outside the realm that many other professions require. And there's already a laundry list of ethical whoopsies in CV and NLP that would warrant this change. If the paper is just faster gngd, then submitting 2 sentences to that fact is reasonable.

On the contrary, these requirements are extremely unusual among scientific conferences. (Just count what fraction of papers in past proceedings in all fields have sections on ethical implications.)
