The Journal of Prompt-Engineered (Moral) Philosophy Or: Why AI-Assisted Ethics Research Requires Process Transparency

The article presents a framework for enhancing transparency in AI-assisted ethics research, arguing that existing disclosure mandates lack philosophical clarity and fail to address the complexities of ethical inquiry. It introduces a documentation-adequacy framework that operationalizes Meaningful Human Control through five elements: declaration, navigation, documentation account, process documentation, and development records. This framework aims to facilitate community-specific assessments of philosophical work, emphasizing the importance of tracking the evidentiary record over conventional evaluation metrics, thereby allowing for future normative judgments.
