The Center for Ethics and Human Values will host a panel to discuss how scientific and academic journals should respond to the growing concerns related to large language models and authorship. For example, are concerns regarding the use of these models for research writing overblown? Are there any appropriate ways for using large language models in academic scholarship? Should journal networks update policies so that researchers can specify that text generated by ChatGPT (or any other AI tools) was not used in their work?
