  The editorial board of a scientific journal uses specialized tools to check the uniqueness of publication texts, allowing them to detect text generated by artificial intelligence. When writing an article, the responsibility for the correctness, originality, reliability, and scientific validity of all submitted materials lies entirely with the authors. AI is not considered a co-author of the article, and the use of AI tools that include generative artificial intelligence is not allowed. The editorial board of the journal reserves the right to reject an article if violations regarding the use of AI tools are detected.
