What evidence should support adoption of an AI tool?
Adoption should be supported by validation studies, independent evaluations, benchmarking results and evidence from similar review contexts.
In more detail
Researchers should seek evidence demonstrating that a tool performs reliably for the intended task.

Vendor claims alone are insufficient.
