  • 将AI交互作为结构化可审计的研究组件记录
  • 通过日志与元数据封装实现模型配置与输出可验证
  • 适合重视可复现性与隐私安全的科研团队

本文提出将生成式AI视为研究对象(AI-RO),构建科学领域生成式AI治理的新范式。不争论AI是否为作者,而是将其使用过程作为可检查、可追溯的研究环节。基于研究对象理论与FAIR原则,提出通过交互日志和元数据打包记录模型配置、提示词及输出。该方法在安全与隐私(S&P)研究中尤为重要,因需满足保密性、完整性与可审计性要求,普通公开方式无法满足。我们实现了一个轻量级写作流程:语言模型在明确约束下合成人工撰写的文献综述笔记,并生成可验证的溯源记录。本工作以示范性工作支持该立场,主张通过结构化文档、受控披露与完整性保护的溯源机制实现科研中生成式AI的有效治理。据此,我们提出未来需推动的关键发展,使此类实践具备实用性与普适性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This paper introduces AI as a Research Object (AI-RO), a paradigm for governing the use of generative AI in scientific research. Instead of debating whether AI is an author or merely a tool, we propose treating AI interactions as structured, inspectable components of the research process. Under this view, the legitimacy of an AI-assisted scientific paper depends on how model use is integrated into the workflow, documented, and made accountable. Drawing on Research Object theory and FAIR principles, we propose a framework for recording model configuration, prompts, and outputs through interaction logs and metadata packaging. These properties are particularly consequential in security and privacy (S&P) research, where provenance artifacts must satisfy confidentiality constraints, integrity guarantees, and auditability requirements that generic disclosure practices do not address. We implement a lightweight writing pipeline in which a language model synthesizes human-authored structured literature review notes under explicit constraints and produces a verifiable provenance record. We present this work as a position supported by an initial demonstrative workflow, arguing that governance of generative AI in science can be implemented as structured documentation, controlled disclosure, and integrity-preserving provenance capture. Based on this example, we outline and motivate a set of necessary future developments required to make such practices practical and widely adoptable.
