RLP 311: Giving Credit to AI Tools in Genealogy Writing

In this podcast episode, Diana and Nicole discuss the use of Generative AI in scholarly and genealogical writing, emphasizing the importance of transparency in disclosing AI assistance. They talk about editorial guidelines from scholarly journals and the Association of Computational Linguistics, which suggest clear declarations of AI's involvement in literature searches, drafting, and idea generation. Key points include recommendations for crediting AI-generated content not as authors but by detailing the AI's role. They also explore citation practices, such as including the AI model and user details, and stress the user's responsibility to verify and refine AI outputs in professional settings, advocating for explicit disclosures in various document sections. Nicole generated this summary with ChatGPT 4.
