arXiv:2606.14209v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we evaluate the extent of undisclosed LLM-generated content in texts from the parliaments of the United Kingdom and Sweden. In many areas, such as in journalism or in academic writing, there are often requirements to clearly disclose whether AI tools, such as LLMs, have been used. In the case of parliamentary texts, the guidelines on disclosure of AI use are more vague. However, in order to maintain transparency and retain public trust, it is generally recommended that parliamentarians should state whether or not they have used AI
The proliferation of advanced LLMs makes their use by public officials both easier and harder to detect, prompting new research into accountability and transparency.
The detection of undisclosed LLM-generated content impacts public trust in governance and highlights the growing challenge of maintaining authenticity in official communications.
This research provides a methodology for identifying AI-generated content in parliamentary texts, potentially leading to new disclosure policies and increased scrutiny.
