Abstract

The rise of Generative AI, notably following the release of ChatGPT in late 2022, has brought both excitement and significant challenges to academia. While some welcome its potential, others express concern, particularly around academic publishing. Mentors, already tasked with upholding ethical standards and addressing academic misconduct among mentees, find themselves in an even more demanding role as they confront the complexities introduced by AI. With academic writing for publication already a difficult skill to master, the dual challenge of integrating technological advancements while safeguarding academic integrity places additional strain on mentorship. This perspective article proposes using the Psycho-Pedagogical Model of Students’ Professional Consciousness Development (Enns & Shapovalova, 2015) as a framework to guide mentors in fostering reflective, ethically aware, and autonomous scholarly writers. Building on this model, it advocates for an approach that embraces AI as a complementary tool while reinforcing the vital human role in scholarly writing.
