We conceive of authenticity in research as an implicit claim made by the researcher that is empirically and ethically grounded. Empirical authenticity relates to the researcher’s genuine commitment to understand the world reflexively. Ethical authenticity means being original and true to oneself despite prevailing performance pressures in the researcher’s environment. Given what we know about the juggernaut of AI, we do not want Critical Perspectives on Accounting to receive submissions in which AI played a significant role in any step of the research process, except for language translation and copyediting purposes. Also, we do not want reviewers and editors-in-charge to rely in any significant way on AI to produce reviews, make editorial decisions, and write editorial letters. This is a question of authenticity.” Reference: Gendron, Y., Andrew, J., Cooper, C., and Tregidga, H. 2024. On the juggernaut of artificial intelligence in organizations, research and society.
