Society of Toxicology AI policy

Disclosure requiredChecked November 9, 2026

In short

SOT's general AI guidance says that when AI is used to produce content shared with SOT leadership, volunteers, or others in the SOT community, its use must be documented with an attestation statement. SOT does not support content generated only by AI without human review, and does not recommend AI for content meant to be unique to an individual, such as a personal statement in an awards application. Acceptable uses may differ by program.

For applicants

  • When AI is used to produce content shared with SOT leadership, volunteers, meeting attendees, or others in the SOT community, its use must be documented with an attestation, for example: "I attest that this content used AI to revise content that I generated."[1]
  • SOT does not support presenting content, data, or other media generated exclusively by AI without human oversight and review.[1]
  • AI is not recommended for content meant to be unique to an individual, such as a personal statement in an awards application. Acceptable uses of AI may differ across SOT programs, including award submissions, applications, and nominations.[1]

    Use of AI Guidance

    Society of Toxicology

    “When AI is used to produce content (written, oral, and other formats) for sharing with SOT leadership, volunteers, meeting attendees, or other individuals within the SOT community, the use of AI must be documented for the audience, with statements such as: “I attest that this content used AI to revise content that I generated.””
    “SOT is supportive of using generative AI for efficiency and effectiveness, but the Society does not support the presentation of content, data, or other media generated exclusively from AI without human oversight and review.”
    “Acceptable uses of AI may differ within specific SOT programs and initiatives (e.g., award and abstract submissions, applications, nominations). AI is not recommended when creating content that is meant to be unique to an individual, such as a personal statement in an awards application.”
