Now that more and more journals <\/strong>are introducing stricter policies against AI-generated content<\/strong>, do you want to know <\/strong>how InstaText<\/strong> can help you meet originality and authorship criteria <\/strong>and get published?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The short answer to this question is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike<\/strong> tools like ChatGPT<\/strong>, InstaText <\/strong>does NOT <\/strong>use generative AI<\/strong> technology. It uses advanced language technologies, but not generative AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means that InstaText, as an editing assistant, does not generate new content, but only analyzes, processes, and improves existing content. The text edited with InstaText<\/strong> is therefore not AI-generated<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Examples of generative AI use restrictions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are some examples of top publications, both academic and non-academic, that have banned or restricted the use of generative AI in their editorial policies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TechCrunch, a leading technology publication, has made its stance on generative AI clear in its guest column guidelines<\/a>: “We do not accept contributions that include text or images produced via generative artificial intelligence.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The editorial policy<\/a> of Science, one of the world’s leading peer-reviewed academic journals, contains strict authorship guidelines: “AI-assisted technologies [such as large language models (LLMs), chatbots, and image creators] do not meet the Science<\/em> journals’ criteria for authorship and therefore may not be listed as authors or coauthors, nor may sources cited in Science<\/em> journal content be authored or coauthored by AI tools.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, the publication terms<\/a> of The World Economic Forum state: “The use of artificial intelligence\u2014specifically LLMs\u2014should be limited to generating ideas or helping with structure, but not as a sole research tool or to generate unedited or unverified content.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It asks authors and creators who use LLM tools for background work to make this clear when pitching their article, emphasizing that “the Forum’s reputation carries with it accountability and a need for fresh thinking.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“AI-assisted technologies [such as large language models (LLMs), chatbots, and image creators] do not meet the Science<\/em> journals’ criteria for authorship and therefore may not be listed as authors or coauthors, nor may sources cited in Science<\/em> journal content be authored or coauthored by AI tools.”

\u2014 Science<\/strong> journal<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

What publishing is really about: Creating, not repeating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you think about it, “fresh thinking<\/strong>,” as The World Economic Forum puts it, is the real purpose of publishing<\/strong>, isn’t it? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The editorial guidelines reminding us of this fact are counterintuitive, but they are emphasized today more than ever as we tend to forget that publishing was originally intended as the next logical step after “creating,<\/strong>” not “regurgitating” <\/strong>old ideas\u2014which is exactly what AI does when it is used to write from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to originality<\/strong>, InstaText <\/strong>leads the way<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And originality always pays off\u2014whether you\u2019re a journalist covering a story, a blogger who wants to follow Google\u2019s AI content recommendations<\/a>, a student writing your thesis, an academic looking to publish your research paper, a startup founder working on an opinion piece, an author writing a book, or an expert writing a thought leadership article.<\/p>\n\n\n

How InstaText works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a closer look at how InstaText helps you comply with authorship and originality<\/strong> guidelines while creating a polished <\/strong>version of your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originality and authorship<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

InstaText is not an AI content generator<\/strong>, i.e. it does not create new content based on pre-existing data or ideas, as generative AI tools do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, InstaText\u2014as an editing assistant powered by other types of advanced language technologies\u2014works with the content you’ve written and focuses solely on improving the way your ideas are expressed<\/strong>, rather than adding new information or changing the core message. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This ensures that the originality of your text is preserved and that you remain the author of the content.<\/p>\n\n\n

Text improvement<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

InstaText improves your text in terms of clarity<\/strong>, readability<\/strong>, flow<\/strong>, structure<\/strong>, style<\/strong>, tone<\/strong>, conciseness<\/strong>, word choice<\/strong>, grammar<\/strong>, spelling<\/strong>, punctuation<\/strong>, and more during the editing and proofreading process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Comparison:<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Its few, carefully selected, and intuitive features\u2014like an advanced personal dictionary<\/strong> and options for formal or informal tone<\/strong> and British or American English<\/strong>\u2014make it easy for you to customize the editing process to suit your preferences and requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

InstaText’s web-based editor<\/a>, browser extensions<\/a>, and the fact that it can be used in offline and online applications such as Microsoft Word<\/a>, Google Docs<\/a>, Overleaf<\/a> and many others<\/a> means you can access it almost anywhere you need it. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

What\u2019s more, the interactivity of feedback<\/strong>, which allows you to accept or reject suggestions, puts you in control of the accuracy of details and helps you write more mindfully<\/a> while sharpening your writing skills during the editing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

InstaText also does not overwhelm you with multiple suggestions for each word and does not explain the suggested edits, minimizing<\/strong> the possibility of distractions <\/strong>and decision fatigue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, it never stores your text<\/strong>, protecting your privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

InstaText vs. Grammarly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you are wondering how InstaText <\/strong>differs from<\/strong><\/a> tools like Grammarly<\/strong>, we\u2019ll leave it to the table below to explain the specific differences in detail. In short, InstaText <\/strong>is the ideal tool for publishing purposes <\/strong>because it focuses on preserving originality and authorship <\/strong>as well as in-depth editing<\/strong>, which are crucial in this context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
