GenAI tools such as ChatGPT, Midjourney and AIVA can be used to write text, design visual works, and produce music. However, output from AI may be biased, inaccurate, or incomplete.  \nResponsible use of GenAI  \nEthical risks  \nUsing GenAI involves ethical risks. These include  \n• Access – fair and equitable access to learning tools is part of equal opportunity education  \n• Accuracy – ensure all information is accurate and reliable  \n• Bias – GenAI may demonstrate a range of types of bias because of the source material it uses  \n• Plagiarism – using GenAI content without citing it is plagiarism  \n• Privacy – GenAI tools and their data, including your data, may be sold to private companies  \n• Transparency – checking where GenAI data comes from can be difficult  \nStudy tips  \nRelying on GenAI may prevent you from developing key study skills. These tips can help you:  \nUse GenAI as a starting point for research but don’t rely on it  \nKnowing how to research independently is a key study skill at university. While GenAI tools can quickly offer large amounts of information, they cannot critically evaluate sources or tell when information is wrong.  \nUse GenAI to help generate some ideas or provide a basic structure  \nLearning how to structure and plan assignments is a key skill for studying at university. If you use GenAI tools to structure and plan your assignments, you are not developing these skills. You also risk having generic or incomplete information.  \nBe aware of the limitations of using GenAI to write/rewrite your content  \nKnowing how to paraphrase, summarise, and synthesise information are key skills at university. Although GenAI can quickly generate or rewrite content, it uses pattern recognition, which means the tool cannot engage with the source to understand the context.  \nCritically evaluating GenAI  \nUnderstand limitations  \nAll AI systems, including GenAI, have limitations. While GenAI output may look impressive, it is vital to remember these tools do not possess genuine reasoning or comprehension skills.  \nEvaluate biases  \nGenAI systems reflect the biases present in training data. When using GenAI you need to be able to identify whether output is balanced and inclusive.  \nAnalyse content  \nContextual analysis is a key step in the critical evaluation of GenAI output. You need to be able to evaluate how well the GenAI tool has understood your question and decide whether the output is useful for your studies.  \nVerify and cross-reference information  \nTo verify if the information is correct, you need to be able to cross-check output using reliable sources. Verifying and cross-referencing will help you understand the material better and ensure you avoid inaccurate or biased information.  \nReferencing GenAI output  \nIf you use AI tools in your assignments, you should reference all output. Acceptable use and permissions may change depending on your unit, course, or faculty, so confirm what is permitted with your ","cbCaimYltotdkwNm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimYltotdkwNm","pdf",249414,"English","# Introduction\n## Purpose\n# Steps to using AI responsibly\n# Artificial Intelligence at university\n## What is AI?\n## What is GenAI?\n## Responsible use of GenAI\n### Ethical risks\n### Study tips\n### Critically evaluating GenAI\n#### Understand limitations\n#### Evaluate biases\n#### Analyse content\n#### Verify and cross-reference information\n### Referencing GenAI output","[{\"question\":\"What are the main steps to use AI tools responsibly at university?\",\"answer\":\"The guide lists steps including understanding AI and how it works, identifying types of GenAI, learning ethical risks, critically evaluating outputs, knowing when you can and cannot use GenAI, writing useful prompts, and staying informed about research and news on GenAI.\"},{\"question\":\"What ethical risks are associated with using GenAI?\",\"answer\":\"Key risks include unfair access, inaccurate or unreliable information, various biases, plagiarism if content is used without citing, privacy concerns about data being sold, and difficulties in checking where GenAI data comes from.\"},{\"question\":\"How should students evaluate and verify GenAI output?\",\"answer\":\"Students should understand GenAI limitations, evaluate whether outputs are balanced and inclusive, analyze how well it understood their question, and cross-check information using reliable sources.\"}]","Using AI tools at university summary - Responsible and effective use of GenAI | PDF"]
