Can I use AI in my courses?
Answer
First, please check with your instructor before using any AI in your assignments to find out what capacity you are allowed to use AI in your course. Learn more about Academic Integrity at AU.
Then, before you decide to use and cite AI, ask yourself if it is really the best source of information on the topic. Generative AI can hallucinate, meaning that if you use it as your source, you may be using false information. Learn about evaluating sources and evaluating web information.
Visit our Guide to Academic Integrity and Artificial Intelligence Tools for more information.
If you do decide to use it you will need to cite how you used it, see our Citing AI page.
