I recently encountered a scholarly manuscript in which the author acknowledged ChatGPT as being instrumental in composing the work. This is fraught with similar problems to students' use of such generative AI tools: how is the reader to trust that the author actually means what is written?
I propose that those who wish to publish such manuscripts must also release their original draft, prior to its being passed through AI tools. This recognizes that the purpose of these tools is to translate between natural language dialects, and so they should be treated like other translations. While I am reading an English translation of Francois Mauriac's Viper's Tangle, I can access the original French in order to distinguish between the connotations of the original and the interpretation of the translator.
