1) It takes time to review each submission and further resources to publish any that are accepted.

2) The volume of submissions has grown massively because spammers are using LLMs to generate spam submissions in the hope of getting paid.

3) The current generation of LLMs are not particularly good at generating quality literature on their own, so this massive deluge of submissions is mostly garbage.

Also I would go to venture to that what GPT produces passes the initial scan. That is mostly spelled and grammatically correct. I think those sort of submissions are common enough previously, but relatively fast to reject with "needs edit".

On other hand GPT might technically be good enough. But there isn't any actual substance. The reason why we read literature. This is varying bar, but still it does exist.
