CNKI removes AI-authored papers: AI not accepted as authors CNKI issued a statement saying that papers from certain journals listing AI like DeepSeek and Gemini as authors have been taken down. The statement emphasized that AI does not have civil subject qualifications, does not enjoy copyright, and cannot bear academic accountability. Listing AI as an author could blur responsibility and violate research integrity norms. CNKI clarified that it currently does not accept AI tools being listed as paper authors. If authors use AI for assistance in writing, it must be explicitly stated in the research methodology or acknowledgments section.
