AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence

Sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence

The AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence promotes theoretical and applied AI research as well as intellectual interchange among researchers and practitioners. The technical program features substantial, original research and practices. Conference panel discussions and invited presentations identify significant social, philosophical, and economic issues influencing AI’s development throughout the world.

How should AI use be reported in my research?

Rigor and reproducibility standards are often established by specific journals and research disciplines. Transparent and complete reporting of methodology and materials used is crucial in promoting reproducibility and replicability. The Association of the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence has a helpful reproducibility checklist that can be found here: https://aaai.org/conference/aaai/aaai-23/reproducibility-checklist/

AI Observatory: Policies & Guidelines Global Collection of Academic AI Policy links across numerous international higher education institutions.
The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) -- “Research Libraries Guiding Principles for Artificial Intelligence These principles will serve as a foundational framework for the ethical and transparent use of AI and reflect the values we hold in research libraries. ARL will rely on these principles in our policy advocacy and engagement.
JMIR Publications: Best Practices for Using AI Tools as an Author, Peer Reviewer, or Editor In this editorial, we outline the current state of editorial policies on generative AI or chatbot use in authorship, peer review, and editorial processing of scientific and scholarly manuscripts. Additionally, we provide JMIR Publications’ editorial policies on these issues. We further detail JMIR Publications’ approach to the applications of AI in the editorial process for manuscripts in review in a JMIR Publications journal.

COPE position on authorship and AI The use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT or Large Language Models in research publications is expanding rapidly. COPE joins organisations, such as WAME and the JAMA Network among others, to state that AI tools cannot be listed as an author of a paper.
Using Generative AI for Literature Searches and Scholarly Writing: Is the Integrity of the Scientific Discourse in Jeopardy? Ever since the public release of ChatGPT in November 2022, serious concerns have been raised about the impact and potentially dire consequences of the increasingly widespread use of generative AI tools for purposes of scientific writing and publishing.
University of Utah: VPR Statement on the Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Research For research activities, policies and guidelines about the use of AI, specifically in terms of writing and reviewing manuscripts, papers, and grant proposals, are evolving across federal agencies, journals, and academic institutions. It is up to investigators, project staff, and students to be aware of the applicable policies and guidelines surrounding the use of AI programs and tools, and question how reliable they are for use in the research environment (NIH, 2023).
