Kebijakan Penggunaan Kecerdasan Buatan Generatif

Indonesian Journal of Criminal Law recognizes the potential of generative artificial intelligence (AI) to support academic research and manuscript preparation. The journal permits responsible use of AI tools, provided that transparency, human oversight, confidentiality, and research integrity are maintained. This policy refers to the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), Elsevier, the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME), and the STM Association.

1. Authors

Authors may use generative AI tools to assist with idea development, language improvement, grammar correction, literature organization, and other supporting tasks. Authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, validity, and integrity of their manuscripts, including all AI-assisted content. AI tools must not be listed as authors or co-authors.

Any substantive use of generative AI in manuscript preparation, research, data analysis, or the creation of content must be disclosed in the Methods or Acknowledgements section, as appropriate. The disclosure must identify the tool used, its version where available, the purpose of use, and the extent of its contribution. Authors must verify all generated information, legal references, statutory provisions, case citations, quotations, and bibliographic sources before submission.

The use of AI to fabricate or falsify research data, invent legal authorities or references, misrepresent court decisions, generate misleading evidence, or manipulate research findings is prohibited. AI-generated or AI-manipulated images, figures, and research materials must not be used to misrepresent evidence or findings. Authors must also ensure that the use of AI respects copyright, privacy, confidentiality, and applicable research ethics requirements.

2. Editors

Editors may use AI tools for appropriate administrative or language-support tasks, provided that confidentiality and data protection are maintained. Editorial decisions, assessments of scientific merit, and determinations concerning publication ethics must remain under human control. Editors must not upload unpublished manuscripts, confidential submission materials, or identifiable personal information into public generative AI systems.

3. Peer Reviewers

Peer reviewers must evaluate manuscripts independently and remain responsible for the accuracy, fairness, and integrity of their reviews. They must not upload submitted manuscripts, excerpts, figures, research data, or confidential information into generative AI tools for evaluation, summarization, or review preparation. AI may only be used for limited language improvement when confidentiality is preserved and the substantive assessment remains the reviewer's own work. Any substantive AI assistance used in preparing a review must be disclosed to the handling editor.

4. Disclosure and Enforcement

Failure to disclose relevant AI use, fabricated references, inaccurate legal analysis, or other misuse of generative AI may result in requests for clarification, manuscript revision, rejection, or further investigation under the journal's publication ethics policy. For published articles, appropriate corrective action may include a correction, an expression of concern, or retraction, depending on the seriousness of the violation.

Indonesian Journal of Criminal Law will periodically review and update this policy in response to developments in AI technology and scholarly publishing standards.
