Principles Guiding the Use of Artificial Intelligence

Accountability:
We always ensure that the information we use, including AI-generated content, is verified, reliable, and accurate. All content is reviewed and finalized by a human.

Fairness, Equality, and Human Rights:
We take care not to use AI-generated material that reinforces existing biases or discrimination. Our use of AI must not compromise privacy or produce misleading or biased content. We always assess the impact of AI usage and only apply it when it does not endanger fairness, equality, or the realization of human rights.

Transparency:
We use AI openly and transparently. We communicate our use of AI in a way that helps our stakeholders understand the origins of the content we produce and enables them to evaluate it.

Copyright and Sources:
When using AI, we ensure that we do not violate copyright laws or fail to credit original sources.

Human, Societal, and Environmental Well-being:
We consider the broader impacts of AI use on society and the environment. Our use of AI must not endanger overall well-being. We remain informed about AI developments and their effects within our field.
