AI Output & Research Disclaimer

Last updated: November 2026

1.AI output is a draft to verify

Everything the RSMinds copilots produce — literature summaries, method and design suggestions, protocols, write-ups — is a first draft to help you think, not a finished result. Read it against your own research question and your own sources before you keep a single line.

2.Check every citation against its source

AI can misquote a paper, attribute a claim to the wrong study, or phrase something a source never said. Before you rely on any reference or finding, open the original source and confirm it exists and genuinely supports the point. A citation that looks right is not the same as a citation that is right.

3.AI can be wrong

Language models can miss context, overstate a finding, or state an error with complete confidence. We build guards to reduce fabrication, but they are a safety net, not a substitute for your own reading and judgement. Treat every AI-written claim as something to confirm.

4.You stay the researcher

RSMinds supports your work — it does not replace your expertise, your supervisor, or peer review. The design choices, the interpretation, and whether a conclusion is sound remain yours. The AI explains and drafts; you make the calls.

5.AI cannot be your co-author

An AI tool is not an author. Under the guidance most journals follow — such as the ICMJE recommendations — AI cannot be listed as an author, and its use should be disclosed. You are the author of your work, and it is yours to meet the authorship and AI-disclosure rules of your journal, institution or examiner.

6.Not medical, legal or clinical advice

Nothing RSMinds produces is medical, clinical, legal or financial advice, or a recommendation about any individual or patient. Do not base a diagnosis, a treatment, or any other professional decision on it.

7.What you publish is yours to stand behind

You are responsible for the accuracy and integrity of anything you publish, submit or present using RSMinds. We do not warrant that any output is correct or complete, and we cannot guarantee acceptance by any journal, examiner or ethics committee. Verify your work before you use it.
