As technology continues to advance, the question of whether artificial intelligence (AI) tools can prepare a research manuscript from scratch has become increasingly relevant. This infographic aims to shed light on the do’s and don’ts for authors who are considering using AI tools at different stages of their publication journey. From literature search to promoting a published manuscript, each stage has its own set of challenges and opportunities.
Although AI tools can provide valuable assistance in many aspects of manuscript preparation, such as literature search, data collation, and proofreading, it is important to remember that AI cannot replace the creativity, originality, and ethical responsibility that is required of authors. In fact, several organizations, including COPE, WAME, and the JAMA Network, have issued statements opposing the attribution of authorship to AI tools. Therefore, it is crucial for authors to be transparent about their use of AI in manuscript preparation and not list AI as a co-author.
But wonder how you can still continue using AI tools at every stage of your manuscript writing process without breaching any ethical standards? Download this FREE infographic that will guide you through each step of your manuscript preparation process.
