Debate Over AI Writing Disclosure Rules

jkubicki · x · 2026-07-19

This repost sparks a debate: if AI hallucinations mandate disclosure, why aren't research assistants, librarians, colleagues, and workshop participants who provide content also required to be disclosed?

The quoted section points out that VLR's policy requires authors to disclose AI usage in "research" (like retrieving relevant cases) and encourages authors to "over-disclose". The author worries this could expand disclosure requirements to nearly all computer-assisted research, writing, and editing, forcing authors to log, audit, and disclose a massive amount of process details.
