Artificial Intelligence Policy

In this policy, AI tools will be defined as those that make use of generative artificial intelligence (AI), chatbots (ChatGPT, DeepSeek), and AI-assisted picture generators.

It is acknowledged that AI tools have the potential to help enhancing human-generated material in terms of quality, accessibility, and clarity. Nonetheless, it is crucial to preserve the integrity of the scientific contents. IRAQI JMS listed guidelines for the usage of AI tools on this page to help authors navigate this environment. 

Rules for Writers Who Use AI Tools

• IRAQI JMS does not allow content that is entirely produced by an AI tools without any discernible human input.
• AI tools should only be applied to enhance human-generated text's quality, or language.
• Figures, images, movies, and schematics should not be created with AI tools.
• You must include a cover letter at submission if your manuscript contains AI tools.
• You may be asked to include more information in the document in the Material and Methods section and the declaration section, such as the name and version of the AI tool, its goal, prompts, and input.
• If authors have any questions, contact with the journal’s staff; they will consider each case separately.
• Because AI tools are incapable of thinking, making creative contributions, being held accountable for the content they produce, or signing copyright agreements, they cannot be regarded as authors of articles published in IRAQI JMS.
• Avoid replicating information and get rid of any biases that AI tools could bring in order to preserve originality and avoid plagiarism.
