Short, citation-ready explanations for AI detection and writing-integrity questions.
What is an AI writing disclosure?
An AI writing disclosure is a statement explaining whether and how AI tools helped create, edit, summarize, translate, or revise a document. It gives reviewers context about assistance used and turns hidden AI use into a clearer, policy-governed workflow.
When should AI-assisted writing be disclosed?
AI-assisted writing should be disclosed when a school, publisher, employer, or client policy requires it, and especially in high-stakes academic, professional, or editorial work. Disclosure expectations should distinguish minor grammar support from substantive drafting, rewriting, analysis, or source generation.
How can detection reports support AI disclosure policies?
Detection reports can support AI disclosure policies by identifying passages that may need review, documenting risk signals, and prompting writers or reviewers to clarify assistance used. The report should guide conversation and documentation, not replace a transparent disclosure process.
FAQ
Should every AI-assisted draft be disclosed?
Policy varies, but high-stakes academic and editorial work should define disclosure expectations clearly.
Can DeepDetector support disclosure?
Yes. Detection reports can help writers and reviewers document where AI assistance may be relevant.
