The editorial board of the Scientific and Technical Journal “Technogenic and Ecological Safety” allows the use of artificial intelligence tools and AI-assisted technologies only as auxiliary means in the preparation of a scientific manuscript, in particular for language editing, technical improvement of the text structure, refinement of wording, or auxiliary data analysis.

The author bears full responsibility for the content of the article, the reliability of the data, the correctness of references, the originality of the text, the scientific novelty, and the validity of the conclusions. Artificial intelligence tools may not be listed as authors or co-authors of a scientific article.

The author is obliged to verify all text fragments created or processed using artificial intelligence technologies and also bears full responsibility for possible errors, distortion of meaning, inaccurate statements, incorrect references, or fabricated sources.

The use of artificial intelligence is not permitted for generating fictitious research results, fabricated sources, concealed production of the core scientific content without proper author supervision, or for violating the confidentiality of the editorial or peer review process.

If artificial intelligence tools are used during manuscript preparation, the author must inform the editorial board and, if necessary, briefly indicate the nature of such use in the accompanying materials or in a note to the article.

Reviewers and members of the editorial board are not advised to upload confidential manuscripts to external artificial intelligence services without appropriate legal and technical guarantees for data protection.
