This (opens in new tab) guide on how to cite AI was recommended to me by an academic institution at the forefront of technology. And yet it feels limited and outdated. Why not include our exact prompts, the model, or a link to the conversation in our works cited? And how do we get people to want to share their process? To not gatekeep or hide that their work was generated or assisted?

I want to standardize the way we acknowledge the role of generated content in the work we produce. Even the citation formats we use today feel complicated and inaccessible. If citing sources is tedious (opens in new tab), how can we expect people to be careful about how and what they cite?
