GenAI et al.: Cocreation, Authorship, Ownership, Academic Ethics and Integrity in a Time of Generative AI
Open accessAbstract
This paper investigates the complex interplay between generative artificial intelligence (AI) and human intellect in academic writing and publishing. It examines the ‘organic versus synthetic’ paradox, emphasizing the implications of using generative AI tools in educational and academic integrity contexts. The paper critiques the prevalent ‘publish or perish’ culture in academia, highlighting the need for systemic reevaluation due to generative AI’s emerging role in academic writing and reporting. It delves into the legal and ethical challenges of authorship and ownership, especially in relation to copyright laws and AI-generated content. The paper discusses generative AI’s diverse roles and advocates for transparent reporting to uphold academic integrity. Additionally, it calls for a broader examination of generative AI tools and stresses the need for new mechanisms to identify generative AI use and ensure adherence to academic integrity and ethics. The implications of generative AI are also explored, suggesting the need for innovative AI-inclusive strategies in academia. The paper concludes by emphasizing the significance of generative AI in various information-processing domains, highlighting the urgency to adapt and transform academic practices in an era of rapid generative AI-driven change.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This position paper examines generative AI’s impact on academic writing, authorship, ownership, and integrity, arguing that AI should not be credited as a co-author and that human authors remain responsible. It proposes the aiTARAS framework for transparent, multilayered disclosure of generative AI use.
Key findings
- Argues generative AI should not be credited as a co-author because authorship requires specific criteria; Table 1 cites ICMJE’s four criteria: substantial contributions, drafting/reviewing, final approval, and accountability. It notes some have credited AI as co-author, while others treat it as a ghost contributor.
- Highlights legal and ownership grey areas: under the 1976 US Copyright Law requiring human authorship, AI-generated works are ineligible for registration and lack copyright protection, potentially entering the public domain immediately (citing Schroeder, 2023); only humans can bear legal responsibility.
- Identifies academic integrity risks: generative AI can enhance efficiency but also enable misconduct and plagiarism; academic integrity is defined by six fundamental values—honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility, and courage. It states there is no effective working solution to unattributed sourcing from unpublished online materials and that banning generative AI is not viable.
- Proposes the aiTARAS framework for disclosure, with categories such as direct contribution, general assistance, specific sections, idea development, editing/reviewing, translation/localization, data analysis, data visualization, and code/algorithms, plus a final human approval statement; primary responsibility rests with the human author.
Methods
- Design: critical/position paper offering a conceptual examination of generative AI in academic writing and publishing, including cocreation, authorship, ownership, ethics, integrity, and reporting.
- Data: no datasets were generated or analysed; the Data availability statement says data sharing is not applicable. The analysis draws on cited literature and policy documents, including ICMJE, COPE, and CSE.
- Main analysis: argumentative synthesis and proposal of the aiTARAS framework with sample disclosure statements; no empirical testing or systematic sampling is described.
Limitations
- Stated: analyses of many papers focus predominantly on ChatGPT; relying on a single example for generalization can mislead, and a wider array of generative AI tools/examples is needed. Also stated: detection/similarity tools are not 100% accurate and often produce false positives, so new mechanisms are needed to identify AI use and violations.
- Stated: discussions often assume English is the native language of all researchers; researchers using generative AI for translation, proofreading, or editing face dilemmas about originality versus AI-produced content.
- Evident from the text: no empirical data, sample, or systematic review is presented; the aiTARAS framework is proposed but not tested or evaluated.

What the sources say
- Partly supportedcites Lee, 2023 sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Conclusion (page not provided) says the authenticity of AI-generated text must be verified, and the Introduction reports journal policies requiring disclosure of AI use and accountability for authorship. The copyright-law section discusses human authorship, but the paper does not establish a growing consensus that human contribution and originality must also be verified across academic outputs. (LLM, conf=0.84)
- Partly supportedcites Perera Molligoda Arachchige & Stomeo, 2023 sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
In the “Dear Editor” section (page unavailable), the authors call for acknowledging ChatGPT use, preserving human expertise, and upholding academic integrity and transparency. That supports concern about human contribution, but the paper does not establish a growing consensus or specifically call for verification of originality and authenticity in academic outputs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-29, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-29 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
