That works, as long as the math is not beyond the mathematicians. Besides that, since you make a pull request analogy: not all pull requests survive review, but generating them like this is cheap. Mathematicians are unlikely to submit pull requests that will be refused because they have a stake in the game: if they do so too often then their papers will no longer be reviewed as eagerly as when they were not submitting bs. The AI peddlers have no such limitations and will happily flood the receivers. As a result actual mathematicians papers run the risk of no longer being given enough consideration because there is this bottleneck you identified. So what will happen instead is exactly the same as what is happening in the world of code: they will engage AI to help with the reviewing. Before long the foundation of math will no longer be understandable by humans. This would be a loss imo.
