Artificial intelligence systems are increasingly used to generate scientific results, including hypotheses, data analyses, simulations, and even full research papers. These systems can process massive datasets, identify patterns faster than humans, and automate parts of the scientific workflow that once required years of training.

The ethical concerns are not abstract; they already affect how research is produced, reviewed, published, and applied in society.Authorship, Credit, and ResponsibilityOne of the most pressing ethical issues centers…
