Language editing in the artificial intelligence era: achieving epistemic integrity
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to write and edit scientific manuscripts; however, their fluency can obscure mismatches between linguistic claim strength and evidential support. This tutorial examines such mismatches through the lens of epistemic integrity, def...
