Artificial Intelligence (AI)
1. Introduction
1.1. The publisher recognises the potential use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace and the improvements and efficiencies it can bring.
1.2. We understand the benefits and risks of using AI and strive to ensure that any AI application used, has extensive restrictions to protect both users and consumers.
2. AI use in EMJ / AMJ Content
2.1. The publisher may use AI to assist with gathering or qualifying research for articles and also within some imagery use, with extensive plagiarism checks to ensure all original works are protected.
2.2. No scientific data or conclusions are derived from AI. We recognise the importance of integrity and thus content and scientific conclusions are drawn from our authors.
2.3. No content is marked as sourced or given an author name, where any AI assistance has been used in researching the article, and all contributors are asked to declare any such assistance.
2.4. AI is not used in any writing that is distributed within EMJ / AMJ Journal articles nor in any written work provided to, or on behalf of our clients or customers.
2.5. We understand there are biases faced in the use of AI due to the learning programs used to create the AI. To prevent bias, all created content is manually peer reviewed.
3. Environmental and Employment Impact
3.1. AI is used internally only to improve efficiencies and workflow and not at the expense of employees. All applications are identified only once it has been determined to be beneficial towards existing and future employees.
3.2. The publisher understands the importance of considering any environmental impact AI might have the potential to cause.
