Utilization of Artificial Intelligence

Policy on the Utilization of Artificial Intelligence

The Journal "Scriptus Manet" mandates the transparent disclosure of any utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in manuscript preparation, in alignment with prevailing international research ethics standards.

The utilization of AI tools for the generation of scholarly content, encompassing the development of ideas, arguments, interpretations, data, or conclusions, is prohibited. Manuscripts should represent the intellectual efforts of the author(s), and demonstrate their critical reasoning and scholarly contribution. AI tools cannot be recognized or credited as co-authors. AI tools can serve auxiliary and technical functions, including:  enhancing grammar, style, or linguistic clarity (editing assistance); generating translations of the author's original text; performing text corpus analysis, data visualization, or other analytical tasks in digital humanities or computational research.

When utilizing AI tools in these approved manners, authors are required to offer a clear and precise disclosure that includes: the name and version of the tool employed, the provider (e.g., OpenAI, Google, etc.), and the specific purpose for which it was used (e.g., language editing, corpus frequency analysis). This information should be included as a separate acknowledgment in a footnote to the article.
Illustrative disclosure statement in the footnote: “Artificial intelligence facilitated language editing and translation through the application of ChatGPT (OpenAI, GPT-5, 2025). The author conducted a review and verification of all content produced by this tool.”

The author(s) are entirely accountable for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of all content within the submitted manuscript, including sections generated with the aid of AI tools. Authors remain ethically and legally accountable for issues such as plagiarism, data validity, and research transparency, regardless of AI usage.
