Authors may use generative AI or AI-assisted tools to improve the readability and language of their manuscripts, but not to perform core scholarly tasks such as generating insights, drawing conclusions, or making recommendations. Use of AI must always be under human oversight, and authors remain fully responsible for the content.

The use of AI tools must be transparently disclosed in the manuscript. However, AI tools should not be listed as authors, as authorship implies responsibilities that only humans can fulfill.

This policy applies to the writing process only, not to the analytical use of AI in research.
