Proper Utilization of Generative AI in Scholarly Writing: The Researcher and Author Perspective

초록

The use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in scholarly publishing is expanding rapidly, yet clear standards for its appropriate use and disclosure remain lacking. Surveys indicate that many researchers already use AI tools for manuscript preparation, particularly for writing assistance and error detection. However, attitudes toward acceptable AI use and disclosure requirements remain inconsistent, especially regarding the use of AI in drafting manuscripts and in the peer-review process. Analyses of manuscript submissions to major journal groups suggest that the proportion of authors disclosing AI use is substantially lower than estimates from researcher surveys, indicating possible underreporting or uncertainty about reporting requirements. It is therefore essential to implement standardized frameworks that require explicit disclosure of AI use to ensure transparency and uphold trust in scholarly communication.
