Abstract:
The use of ChatGPT, an artifcial intelligence-based language model, in article writing has raised ethical issues such as authorship, plagiarism, and errors in references. In this research, we aimed to examine the use of ChatGPT in academic publications from an ethical perspective. In the procedures published by many publishers, it is stated that ChatGPT cannot be accepted as an author, but support can be received from them in cases such as translation, and this support should be clearly stated in the acknowledgment section of the article. However, there is a need for programs that can objectively evaluate the sections where ChatGPT is used, rather than relying on the subjective statements of the authors regarding for which parts of the article they have received support from ChatGPT. With the correct use of this technology, it is thought that concerns in the field of academia can be eliminated in the near future.
