Basic Principles and Responsibilities for Authors in the Use of Generative AI
Authorship and Responsibility:
Under no circumstances should generative AI tools be written as authors or co-authors.
Authors are solely responsible for the content, accuracy, and originality of the articles.
The use of AI tools does not exempt authors from their scientific and ethical obligations.
Transparency and Disclosure:
All instances where AI tools are used must be declared in the article.
This declaration must be included in the "Method" or "Acknowledgements" section of the article.
The declaration must explain in detail the full names of the tools used, their version numbers, how they were used, and for what purposes.
Permitted Uses
Language and Readability Improvements:
The use of AI may be considered appropriate for authors to improve grammar, spelling, punctuation, and narrative fluency in their own texts.
Restricted or Prohibited Areas of Use
Content Creation:
It is not acceptable for AI to write the basic parts of an article, such as the abstract, introduction, literature review, or discussion, in their entirety.
Source Creation and Citation:
It is strictly forbidden to create fabricated or unverifiable sources using AI tools or to cite nonexistent studies.
All sources must be approved by the authors and properly cited.
Academic Writing and Argument Development:
The author is responsible for developing the argument, theoretical contributions and basic theses of the article.
AI can not be used in these processes.
Procedures to be Applied in Case of Policy Violation:
If the use of AI is not disclosed or is used in a manner that violates the rules, the article may be rejected.
