Summary:
"Key Points
- GenAI exposes structural weaknesses in descriptive, template-driven review formats.
- arXiv and AI-native preprint platforms illustrate divergent infrastructural responses to AI-generated content.
- Review articles function as knowledge infrastructure, not merely as summaries of prior work.
- Reflexive, agenda-setting reviews remain resistant to automation and retain high editorial value.
- The future of review articles lies in function and interpretation, not volume or exhaustiveness."
