Publisher Policies: In general, academic publishers won't accept AI-authored manuscripts. But they may accept submissions with some AI content (e.g. images, graphs) if the content is clearly marked as such. The use of AI to improve the manuscript (e.g. style, generating reference list) may also be permissible. Always be transparent about the use of AI!
Publisher policies may change over time as AI tools develop further. Checking these policies before submitting a manuscript is advisable.

Authors are using generative AI to support their creative labors, engage in research across a number of disciplines, and also use it for other mundane but important tasks. But, there are still legal uncertainties when it comes to how authors and creators should interact with Generative AI. We will update this page as well as publish new resources as legislation and case laws develop in this arena.
