For submissions, we follow the IEEE Journals’ ”Guidelines for Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Generated Content”:
The use of content generated by artificial intelligence (AI) in an article (including but not limited to text, figures, images, and code) shall be disclosed in the acknowledgments section of any article submitted to an IEEE publication. The AI system used shall be identified, and specific sections of the article that use AI-generated content shall be identified and accompanied by a brief explanation regarding the level at which the AI system was used to generate the content.
The use of AI systems for editing and grammar enhancement is common practice and, as such, is generally outside the intent of the above policy. In this case, disclosure as noted above is not required, but recommended.
Information or content contained in or about a manuscript under review shall not be processed through a public platform (directly or indirectly) for AI generation of content for a review. Doing so is considered a breach of confidentiality because AI systems generally learn from any input.
In particular, inclusion of non existent references will lead to desk rejection.
