It would be plagiarism to copy much of anything from someone else’s original work without citation. Even using GPT as a drafting tool will result in a lot of AI content making it into the final work verbatim. I think citation would legitimize this process, to an extent. Right now I feel like using the tool at all would count as “cheating” in many people’s minds, and I share some of those feelings if there is no disclosure. I also think LLMs are a legitimate tool for many purposes and their widespread use is inevitable.
