Description
Summary:Abstract Background The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into the process of writing research papers has introduced a new era characterized by enhanced efficiency and production in the field of academia. Nevertheless, this development raises numerous ethical concerns that require in-depth debate. Main body The present study reviews available literature to investigate the ethical implications of utilizing AI in the process of preparing manuscripts including data analysis, drafting, and publication. Key ethical implications are issues surrounding intellectual property rights, correct attribution in collaborative writing endeavors, and transparency and responsibility for the utilization of AI. The article also examines the implications of inequality in academic publishing and its broader impact on society, including the exacerbation of disparities in access to scientific information. To tackle these difficulties, the study proposes the establishment of comprehensive rules and optimal methods to guarantee the ethical utilization of AI in the process of writing research papers. Researchers can effectively utilize AI technology while minimizing ethical hazards by promoting transparency, accountability, and diversity. Conclusion This study offers a comprehensive examination of the ethical factors associated with writing research papers using artificial intelligence. It draws upon a wide range of literature from several disciplines, including ethics, AI, and scholarly publications, and provides in-depth knowledge for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners alike.
