DECLARATION OF GENERATIVE AI AND AI-ASSISTED TECHNOLOGIES IN THE WRITING PROCESS

Authors must declare the use of generative AI in scientific writing at the time of submission. The following guidelines apply only to the writing process, and not to the use of AI tools to analyse and generate insights from data as part of the research process:

• Generative AI and AI-assisted technologies should only be used to improve the readability and language of the manuscript.
• The technology must be used with human oversight and control, and authors should carefully review and edit the results, as AI can generate authoritative-sounding results that may be incorrect, incomplete, or biased. Authors are ultimately responsible and accountable for the content of their work.
• Authors must not list or cite AI and AI-assisted technologies as authors or co-authors on the manuscript, as authorship implies responsibilities and tasks that can only be assigned to and performed by humans.

The following statement must be added in a new section before the list of references when using generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in scientific writing:

In preparing this paper, the author(s) used [NAME OF TOOL / SERVICE] for [REASON]. Following the use of this tool/service, the author(s) have reviewed and edited the content as necessary and take full responsibility for the content of the published article.

This statement does not apply to the use of basic tools such as grammar, spelling and reference checking tools. If authors have nothing to disclose, they do not need to add a statement.
