AI Disclosure

How Research OS uses AI and how to disclose it in your academic publications.

AI Technology in Research OS

Research OS uses Anthropic's Claude model to power all engines, including paper writing, literature review, and empirical research script generation. All AI-generated content is flagged with [UNVERIFIED CITATION] markers to remind authors to independently verify.

Author Responsibility

AI-generated content is a drafting aid, not a substitute for academic judgment. Authors are responsible for verifying all facts, data, citations, and arguments, and for disclosing AI use per their target journal's policy before submission.
