As AI becomes an integral tool in education and beyond, it’s important for all faculty, staff, and students at 91ÁÔÆæ to use it responsibly. These guidelines outline how to engage with generative AI ethically and effectively while maintaining academic integrity.
- Document AI Usage
The use of AI in any stage of your work’s creation must be explicitly disclosed and thoroughly documented. Submitting AI-generated content without proper attribution or authorization is considered plagiarism. Failure to disclose AI use may result in an honor violation. - AI as a Tool, Not a Substitute
AI should serve as a tool to assist and enhance your thought process rather than replacing it. - Take Responsibility for Your Work
AI is known to make mistakes. You are fully accountable for AI-generated content. Make sure you can attribute and source all facts so they can be verified. - Engage Ethically with AI
Evaluate your AI-generated outputs and consider any potential biases, limitations and ethical implications. Respect privacy, confidentiality and intellectual property rights. - Protect Confidential Data
AI tools may expose data to third parties, lack confidentiality, and be vulnerable to data breaches. - Follow Instructor Guidelines
These general guidelines apply unless your instructor provides alternate directions for using AI in assignments. Always check and adhere to your instructor’s specific expectations regarding AI use. It is your responsibility to know and follow your instructor’s guidelines for AI use on each assignment.
