Proper Use of Artificial Intelligence

The role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the scientific field has revolutionized the way science is conducted, facilitating and optimizing research work. However, concerns have arisen regarding its use in the scientific domain, particularly in research integrity, data usage, and privacy. Therefore, ethics becomes an imperative to establish guidelines for the honest and responsible use of AI.

Anales de Derecho adheres to the recommendations developed by the R4C-IRG Interdisciplinary Research Group: Complex Thinking for All and the Educational Technology Unitof the Institute for the Future of Education (IFE) at Politécnico de Monterrey regarding scientific practice.

  • Ensuring scientific integrity and ethics when using AI in research: AI should be considered an auxiliary tool, not a definitive solution.
  • Safeguarding personal data confidentiality and complying with global data protection regulations: This must be ensured throughout its entire usage process.
  • Critically analyzing AI-generated data: By recognizing its technical limitations and the influence of prompt quality on results.
  • Rigorously verifying and validating obtained information: Ensuring the validity and relevance of results, while assuming responsibility for their interpretation and application.
  • Thoroughly documenting the methods and tools used: Clearly specifying authorship and the extent of AI’s contribution to research findings.
  • Actively identifying, mitigating, and preventing biases in research: Promoting an honest and responsible use of this technology.
  • Continuously staying updated on AI advancements: Exploring different tools and encouraging their creative and effective use in research.
  • Conducting periodic reviews and adaptations of AI regulations: Ensuring ongoing alignment of ethical principles with scientific integrity.
  • Encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration to enrich knowledge exchange: Leveraging the synergy between AI and human expertise.
  • Actively sharing relevant AI sources for research and providing training to other researchers on its effective application.
