"AI chatbots have been with us three years and one month (at least the kind that use large language models (LLMs) to communicate with natural-sounding words). Already norms are emerging in some professions for users to disclose how they use AI. For example: Organizations such as the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors created policies for disclosing AI use in scientific manuscripts."
"We're not all so-called "content creators." But as professionals, we do "create content" and we communicate with "content" - emails, phone calls, voicemail, texts, instant messages, video calls, and slide presentations. Some of us build websites, create charts and graphs, share spreadsheets, and create marketing materials. All these communication acts and content types can be generated with AI tools. As I argued in a recent column, the assumption that you're using AI to create this stuff is growing."
AI chatbots powered by large language models have become widespread and professional norms for disclosing AI assistance are emerging. Medical journals, legal regulators, and commercial platforms already require or recommend explicit disclosure of AI use. A wide range of professional communications and content types — including emails, presentations, charts, websites, and marketing materials — can be generated or assisted by AI. Public assumptions that AI was used are increasing and can erode trust when provenance is unclear. Transparent disclosure of AI use preserves trust, supports accountability, clarifies authorship, and helps meet legal and ethical obligations; universal disclosure norms are necessary.
