Preprints & Early-Stage Submissions
We now accept preprints to accelerate open discourse on AI ethics, societal impact, human-centric design, and responsible AI development. This is ideal for conceptual frameworks, visionary proposals, simulations, feasibility studies, ethical critiques, or interdisciplinary ideas that aren't yet ready for full multi-stage peer review.
Preprints are posted quickly (usually within 1–10 business days after basic alignment check) and are clearly labeled as non-peer-reviewed. They complement our formal journal track — many preprints evolve into submitted papers later! Cross-posting to arXiv, SSRN, or similar is encouraged.

Conceptual and socio-ethical proposals

Simulation-based or modeling studies

What We Do NOT Accept

Content promoting harm, bias amplification, misinformation, or unethical applications

Work violating academic integrity (plagiarism, fabrication)
