Always confirm with your instructor whether AI (Artificial Intelligence) tools like ChatGPT are allowed for an assignment or activity.
Unauthorized use of AI may be considered an academic integrity offence.
If you use AI to generate ideas, outlines, or other content for an assignment, always include a statement in your work identifying which AI tools you used and how you used them. Include the prompt or question you used, and any part of the AI-generated text that you used in your assignment.
Always verify information and sources generated by AI tools.
- AI has been known to create false/incorrect information
- AI has been known to cite non-existent sources
- AI uses intellectual property without proper citation or attribution
- Content from AI tools is often not retrievable by other readers
