Yes, you can include in your disclosure that AI tools were used to translate content or improve language clarity. Always check your course, faculty or publisher’s requirements regarding disclosure format and level of detail.

Remember to:

  • Cite the original source of the content being translated
  • Follow the disclosure format required by your course, faculty, or publisher
  • Be transparent about AI use and clearly state its role (e.g. translation, grammar checking, language refinement)
  • Ensure that the intellectual content, ideas, and interpretations remain your own
  • Review and edit AI-assisted output to maintain accuracy and appropriate academic tone

Please avoid:

  • Presenting AI-generated or heavily AI-rewritten text as entirely your own work
  • Using vague statements that do not clearly indicate how AI was used
