These WAME (World Association of Medical Editor) guidelines aim to help authors and reviewers understand how best to attribute the use of chatbots/AI in their work.

1. AI tools should not be credited as authors.
2. Authors can use generative AI (ChatGPT) to enhance readability and language but must carefully review and edit AI-generated content, as they are responsible for its accuracy.
3. Authors must disclose the use of AI in their manuscript under a section titled “Declaration on the use of Generative AI and assisted technologies in the writing process,” specifying the AI tool used.
