How to Cite AI

When using AI tools for publications, it is required to cite your source.

  • Be transparent about your use of AI; report what tool you used, for what purpose, and details about the prompt and output. 
  • For journal manuscripts, follow the author guidelines provided by the publisher about using and citing AI.
  • It is your responsibility to confirm that the output from the AI tool is accurate. 

Section 14.5.2 of the AMA Manual of Style, 11th edition, provides guidance on referencing AI.

A JAMA editorial provides guidance on the use and reporting of AI in research and scholarly publication.
