How and when to cite generative AI depends on which citation style you use. Below are guidelines for the major styles.
Because content created by text and image generators cannot be independently replicated, you may need to explain what prompts or data you used to generate any AI-assisted product you include in your work.
Note on publishing with AI: if you are writing a paper you plan on publishing in an academic journal, please be aware that several major publication ethics groups including COPE, JAMA, and WAME, have rejected claiming generative AI as an author in a manuscript submitted for publication.
