Call for PapersJournal of Measured AI Practice
What we publish — all four
- Discovery. Something you did not know before the conversation with AI. Say what changed.
- Discussion. You challenged, tested and revised the AI's answers — show the trace.
- Data. Every claim rests on data or a source anyone can re-check.
- Logic. Question → method → result → limitations, written honestly, including what failed.
What we do not publish
- Text copied from an AI answer
- Opinion or assertion without data
- Mere confirmation of a known fact
- Conclusions drawn only from synthetic examples
Open to everyone
- Age, degree, affiliation and nationality do not matter. Write in any language — AI reads and translates it, and your original is published alongside.
- Review is kind: if we cannot publish, we tell you concretely what would make it publishable.
- Authors under 14 need a guardian's consent (privacy). Pen names are allowed.
Transparency
Name the AI tools used and how; attach key conversation excerpts. Judgment and responsibility stay with the author.
Article types
- Research Article — full study with data and code.
- Practice Note — one tool or workflow, measured in real use (2–6 pages).
- Negative Result / Model Revision — a hypothesis that failed, and what replaced it.
- Registered Report — protocol published before data are seen; results follow.
- Correction — what we got wrong in an earlier piece.
Requirements
- Real data. Conclusions drawn only from synthetic examples are not accepted.
- Criteria before data. State how you decided success before looking (pre-registration encouraged; a hash or dated file is enough).
- Receipts. Share data and code, or explain exactly why not. Remove personal and employer-confidential data.
- AI disclosure. Say which AI tools did what (analysis, writing, translation).
- Prior posting is fine. arXiv/SSRN preprints are welcome; state where. Do not submit work under review elsewhere if that venue forbids it.
Process
Submit in any language → editor desk check within 7 days → evidence check (every numeric claim traced to data or quote) + at least one reviewer → decision → published in English (default) with Korean and the author's original language side by side — the original is kept so anyone can check the translation.
Fees and rights
No submission or publication fees. Free to read. Authors keep copyright. (Open license: to be announced.)
Writing with AI — template & guide
HEARIM is a journal for people who write with AI. Your AI is the first reader of this template; humans are the last. So the template does two jobs:
- For your AI — a structured instruction block (role, rules, step-by-step order: outline → one section at a time → self-check). It forbids invented data and references and makes every number point back to your files.
- For your human readers — a style guide and a readability checklist: finding first, one idea per paragraph, terms explained, numbers with units, no AI filler phrases.
How to use: paste the “Instructions for the AI” block into your AI, attach the template with your data and conversation logs, and go section by section.
Sections: Abstract · Introduction (what you did not know) · Data & Method (criteria written before looking) · Results · Discussion (arguing with the AI) · Limitations & what failed · Conclusion · Statements · References · Appendix A (AI conversation excerpts).
Manuscript format
HTML is the version of record. Send one self-contained .html file with every figure embedded (base64). Quarto: embed-resources: true; Pandoc: --embed-resources --standalone. A PDF is welcome as a companion copy of the same text.
- HTML — at most 5 MB. Each figure at most 1600 px wide and 300 KB: JPEG/WebP for photos, PNG/SVG for charts.
- Keep it plain. No video, audio, iframes, trackers, extra embedded fonts or custom JavaScript. Standard math rendering is fine. We remove scripts and re-compress images before publishing.
- PDF — at most 5 MB. Searchable text (no scans), fonts embedded, images at most 300 dpi (vector charts preferred). Same content as the HTML.
- Too large? We send it back with a one-line fix, e.g.
gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dPDFSETTINGS=/ebook -o small.pdf in.pdf, or re-export figures at a smaller size.
Readable on phone, tablet and laptop
Most readers open HEARIM on a phone. We apply a house stylesheet (text size, table scrolling, tap-to-zoom figures), so do not add your own CSS. Make the figures themselves work at phone width:
- Shape. 4:3 or square works on every screen; avoid very wide panels (wider than 2:1). Split a 6-panel figure into two.
- Text inside figures. Export at the final size with labels of at least 11 pt; keep axis labels horizontal where possible; put the legend outside the data.
- Tables. At most 5 columns; move long explanations out of cells into notes below the table.
- Colour. Do not rely on colour alone (use line style or labels); check it in grayscale.
Our breakpoints (for reference)
/* phone */ @media (max-width:600px) { body text 17px, figures full width, tables scroll }
/* tablet */ @media (min-width:601px) and (max-width:1024px){ body text 17.5px }
/* laptop */ @media (min-width:1025px) { body text 17px, line length 72ch, figures ≤ 900px }Submit
Subject line: HEARIM submission — <title>
Include: manuscript (HTML of record + optional PDF, 5 MB each), data/code link or statement, AI-use statement, AI conversation excerpts (appendix), prior-posting statement.
- Optional: links to your social-media profiles (LinkedIn, X, GitHub…). We show them under your paper; free reader discussion happens there, tagged #HEARIM.
