In cases where authors employ generative artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-assisted technologies during the "writing process", their utilization should solely aim to enhance readability and language. It is important to recognize that AI has the potential to generate content that sounds authoritative but may be incorrect, incomplete, or biased. Consequently, authors should exercise caution and diligently review the generated output. AI and AI-assisted technologies should not be attributed as authors or co-authors, nor should they be acknowledged as such in citations. To ensure transparency, authors must disclose the use of AI and AI-assisted technologies in their manuscript's writing process.
