This is wild. I submitted at 11:08am IST, the submission ID was already #55,005. By 11:45am IST it had reached #55,499. a HUGE submission number!!!

Really curious to see what research will look like 5–10 years from now :)

there’s another interesting problem, do authors always understand what they submit?

Some CMU researchers looked into exactly this and proposed a method to tackle it: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~nihars/preprints/greCAPTCHA.pdf
