When AI reviews a paper, where do ICLR guidelines draw the line

You're right to be cautious. ICLR's guidelines require disclosure of AI use, which you're following, but they're silent on whether sharing the paper itself with an LLM is permitted. That silence creates real uncertainty. Many reviewers feel a second AI look could catch missed insights, but without explicit permission, the safest path is to avoid uploading the full paper.
