• Reviewers are selected based on their expertise related to the manuscript’s subject area.

• Review criteria include originality, methodological soundness, ethical compliance, clarity of presentation, and relevance to AI governance and societal impacts.

• Reviewers are expected to provide constructive, unbiased, and timely feedback to authors and editors.

• Conflicts of interest must be declared by reviewers and editors to maintain review impartiality.

• The editorial board makes final decisions on manuscript acceptance based on reviewer recommendations and overall editorial judgement.

• Authors are encouraged to respond thoughtfully to reviewer comments and revise manuscripts accordingly.

• The journal supports transparency and confidentiality of the review process and may use plagiarism detection tools.
