AI and Publishing Guidelines - Taylor & Francis

Press release (February 17, 2023): Taylor & Francis Clarifies the Responsible use of AI Tools in Academic Content Creation - Taylor & Francis Newsroom (taylorandfrancisgroup.com)


Excerpt:

Authors are accountable for the originality, validity and integrity of the content of their submissions. In choosing to use AI tools, authors are expected to do so responsibly and in accordance with our editorial policies on authorship and principles of publishing ethics.

Authorship requires taking accountability for content, consenting to publication via an author publishing agreement, giving contractual assurances about the integrity of the work, among other principles. These are uniquely human responsibilities that cannot be undertaken by AI tools.

Therefore, AI tools must not be listed as an author. Authors must, however, acknowledge all sources and contributors included in their work. Where AI tools are used, such use must be acknowledged and documented appropriately.
