Abstract

Background: When properly utilized, artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) may improve virtually every aspect of research, from data gathering to synthesis. Nevertheless, when used inappropriately, the use of AIGC may lead to the dissemination of inaccurate information and introduce potential ethical concerns.Research Design: Cross-sectional. Study Sample: 65 top surgical journals. Data Collection: Each journals submission guidelines and portal was queried for guidelines regarding AIGC use.Results: We found that, in July 2023, 60% of the top 65 surgical journals had introduced guidelines for use, with more surgical journals (68%) introducing guidelines than surgical subspecialty journals (52.5%), including otolaryngology (40%). Furthermore, of the 39 with guidelines, only 69.2% gave specific use guidelines. No included journal, at the time of analysis, explicitly disallowed AIGC use.Conclusions: Altogether, this data suggests that while many journals have quickly reacted to AIGC usage, the quality of such guidelines is still variable. This should be pre-emptively addressed within academia.

顶级外科期刊中人工智能生成内容的指南和披露的差异性。

背景：如果使用得当，人工智能生成的内容（AIGC）几乎可以改善研究的方方面面，从数据收集到合成。然而，如果使用不当，人工智能生成内容（AIGC）可能会导致不准确信息的传播，并带来潜在的伦理问题：研究设计：横断面。研究样本：65 种顶级外科期刊。数据收集：对每份期刊的投稿指南和门户网站进行查询，了解有关AIGC使用的指南：我们发现，在2023年7月，65种顶级外科期刊中有60%推出了使用指南，其中推出指南的外科期刊（68%）多于外科亚专科期刊（52.5%），包括耳鼻喉科（40%）。此外，在 39 种有指南的期刊中，只有 69.2% 提供了具体的使用指南。在进行分析时，没有收录期刊明确禁止使用AIGC：总之，这些数据表明，虽然许多期刊对 AIGC 的使用做出了快速反应，但这些指南的质量仍然参差不齐。学术界应该预先解决这个问题。

期刊介绍： Surgical Innovation (SRI) is a peer-reviewed bi-monthly journal focusing on minimally invasive surgical techniques, new instruments such as laparoscopes and endoscopes, and new technologies. SRI prepares surgeons to think and work in "the operating room of the future" through learning new techniques, understanding and adapting to new technologies, maintaining surgical competencies, and applying surgical outcomes data to their practices. This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
