Artificial Intelligence Technologies in Human Research
This is the harder case: not using AI to write your paperwork but running a study in which AI is part of the research itself. Pittsburgh's human research protection office specifies what the submission must then carry, including the training and validation methods used, a vendor security assessment uploaded as evidence, a data safety monitoring plan scaled to the risk the AI introduces, and consent language covering future research use and possible commercialisation. If you are building or testing a model on participant data, this tells you what a review board will demand before it approves you.
