Use this to plan strategy around ICLR's OpenReview process. Reopen the current Reviewer Guide and Author Guide before advising on timelines, visibility, or revision permissions.
ICLR pioneered fully open review: submissions, reviews, scores, author responses, and final decisions remain on OpenReview permanently, and community members may post comments. This visibility changes the calculus at every stage.
| Visibility property | Strategic consequence | Failure mode it punishes |
|---|---|---|
| Reviews are public forever | Reply as if future citers will read it | Defensive or rude rebuttals |
| Scores are visible | Address the objection behind the score, not the digit | Score-haggling that clutters the thread |
| Community can comment | A "this is just X" post can appear | Weak novelty framing left unguarded |
| Decisions are archived | The meta-review must match your final PDF | Quietly changing claims after acceptance |
A submission on an alignment objective gets two borderline reviews and one negative. Instead of arguing all three, the authors identify the one concern the AC will weigh: whether the objective generalizes beyond the tuned prompt set. They post a public reply with a held-out-prompt table and upload an allowed revision. One reviewer's updated, still-public review raises the score, and the AC's meta-review cites the resolved concern.
