ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE POLICY

Guidelines for the Responsible Use of AI in Synergy and Society Service

 For Authors

  1. Ethical and Responsible Use
  • Authors are required to clearly state the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in their research, including data collection, analysis, or writing assistance. Proper attribution must be provided for any AI-generated content integrated into the manuscript.
  • Authors must comply with applicable privacy regulations and obtain informed consent if AI tools are used to handle personal or sensitive data.
  • It is the authors' responsibility to recognize and mitigate potential bias in AI systems to ensure that the results of their research remain fair, valid, and unbiased.
  • All content derived from AI tools must comply with applicable intellectual property and copyright laws.
  1. AI in Research Methodology and Data Analysis
  • Authors must critically assess the appropriateness of using AI tools for the purposes of their research, particularly regarding the tool's accuracy, reliability, and compatibility with the field of research.
  • Results obtained using AI tools must be validated using standardized research protocols to ensure scientific rigor and reproducibility. This journal encourages the use of interpretable AI models—tools that offer explainable output—to support clarity in service methodology and foster a deeper understanding of its findings.
  1. Academic Integrity and Originality
  • Any assistance from AI must be transparently acknowledged in accordance with accepted academic citation standards.
  • Manuscripts submitted to Synergy and Society Service should reflect the authors' original contributions, analytical thinking, and scientific creativity, and should not rely solely on AI-generated content or formulations.
  1. Transparency in Peer Review and Collaboration
  • Authors are expected to disclose the use of AI during the peer review process and when interacting with co-authors or collaborators. This ensures transparency and supports academic dialogue.
  • Collaborative service teams should establish clear agreements regarding the use of AI tools, data handling, and authorship attribution from the outset of the project.

 

For Reviewers

Reviewers should treat submitted manuscripts as confidential documents. Uploading manuscripts to AI tools may violate confidentiality, proprietary rights, and data privacy, especially if personally identifiable information is included. Reviewers are solely responsible for the content of their reviews.

 

To Editors

Editors should treat manuscripts as confidential documents and refrain from uploading them to generative AI tools to avoid violating confidentiality and privacy rights.
