According to the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Supervision Department of the Ministry of Science and Technology recently compiled and issued the "Guidelines for Responsible Research Behavior (2023)", proposing that generativeAI(AIGC) directly generate application materials, and generative artificial intelligence shall not be listed as a co-achiever of the results. At the same time, it emphasizes that scientific researchers should incorporate scientific and technological ethics requirements into the entire process of research activities.
The "Guidelines" apply to scientific research institutions, universities, medical and health institutions, enterprises and their scientific researchers, and the relevant regulatory requirements cover the main links and processes of scientific and technological activities.
Regarding the publication of research results, the Guidelines emphasize that the publication of breakthrough research results and major research progress must be approved by the research unit. Researchers are not allowed to disseminate research results to the public without scientific verification or peer review; they are not allowed to republish published papers or the data and pictures therein; they are not allowed to take parts of multiple published papers to piece together "new results" and publish them.
