Policy
Use of AI tools
What may and may not be delegated to generative AI by authors and reviewers.
Authors
Generative AI tools cannot be listed as authors, because they cannot take responsibility for the work. Authors who use such tools for drafting, editing or code generation disclose the tool and how it was used, and remain responsible for the accuracy of everything they deposit.
AI-generated images, data or citations must not be presented as real unless the work is about such content and it is clearly labelled.
Reviewers
Unpublished data and manuscripts under review must not be uploaded to external generative-AI services. Reviewers may use tools to improve the wording of their own report, but the scientific judgement must be their own.
