The myth and intuition of a perfect machine being complete is a dominant cultural theme. I recommend Erik J. Larson's book on the myths of artificial intelligence. I see that the fundamental problem with peer review is somewhat broad. We understand inferences through induction and deduction, but we fail to understand and appreciate abduction, which is actually the basis of science and what makes us human. I believe, abstractly, this is one of the problems. I think abduction is linked to meta-rationality, another cultural difficulty.
