As the use of Generative AI (Gen-AI) in scholarly writing and peer reviews continues to rise, it is essential for the computing field to establish and adopt clear Gen-AI policies. This study examines the landscape of Gen-AI policies across 64 major Computer Science conferences and offers recommendations for promoting more effective and responsible use of Gen-AI in the field.

Echoes of Automation: The Increasing Use of LLMs in NewsmakingAbolfazl Ansari, Delvin Ce Zhang, Nafis Irtiza Tripto et al.
The rapid rise of Generative AI (GenAI), particularly LLMs, poses concerns for journalistic integrity and authorship. This study examines AI-generated content across over 40,000 news articles from major, local, and college news media, in various media formats. Using three advanced AI-text detectors (e.g., Binoculars, Fast-Detect GPT, and GPTZero), we find substantial increase of GenAI use in recent years, especially in local and college news. Sentence-level analysis reveals LLMs are often used in the introduction of news, while conclusions usually written manually. Linguistic analysis shows GenAI boosts word richness and readability but lowers formality, leading to more uniform writing styles, particularly in local media.
