Authorship in the Age of AI

Artificial intelligence and machine learning tools are not new to the scholarly publishing community, but recent, compelling technologies like ChatGPT and DALL-E are rapidly transforming the processes and methods used by authors in the manuscript preparation and presentation stages of their research workflows. In this session, we will hear from an expert panel convened to discuss and debate the current trends surrounding AI applications positioned to support researchers in the writing and presentation of their work. Panelists will present cutting edge AI use cases bringing new workflows and insights to the authorship process—e.g., AI to reduce language barriers, data scraping, and reference accuracy. This session will highlight guidelines that are in place to help authors and reviewers—as well as editors, publishers, and readers—correctly source and cite AI tools in their manuscripts. Learn from this expert panel as they take a closer look at specific tools being deployed today, their uses, and their limitations.
