For the past seven years, we have been exploring the intersections of AI and philosophy, art and design, and teaching. During the Spring 2023 Harvard course Creativity (taught by Professor David Atherton), course guest and metaLAB Principal Sarah Newman led a unit in which students collaboratively brainstormed a prospective code of conduct for the use of AI tools at Harvard. Under the guidance of Sarah Newman, Kathleen Esfahany ( metaLAB Research Assistant and Neuroscience PhD Student), and Professor David Atherton, the students’ ideas were refi ned into the following proposed code of conduct, which was shared with the Harvard administration on July 11, 2023. Given the ongoing swift and visible adoption of AI tools in coursework, we hope that this proposal can assist with the development of policies on the use of AI tools in educational settings.  \nContents  \nAuthors 2  \nContributions from Creativity (Gen Ed 1067) Students 2  \nContact 2  \nSummary 3  \nProposed Harvard AI “Code of Conduct” 4  \nI.

During the “AI & Creativity” unit, led by course guest Sarah Newman, students undertook an exercise to create a proposed “code of conduct” for how Harvard might govern the use of generative AI technologies in educational assignments. At the end of the semester, a subset of the students and the teaching fellows from the course reconvened to refi ne and consolidate their ideas, which served as direct inspiration for the content of this proposal. We are grateful to the following students for their contributions to this proposal:  \nEsther An (Computer Science and Statistics, Class of 2025), Antara Bhattacharya ( Linguistics and Computer Science, Class of 2025), Andreea Haidau (Applied Math and Neuroscience, Class of 2026), Annie Miall ( History and Science and Molecular and Cellular Biology, Class of 2023), Rares Stefan Avram (Computer Science and Statistics, Class of 2025), Dh riti Vadlakonda ( Neuroscience, Class of 2026), Juan Valdez ( Psychology, Class of 2026), Michelle Wang ( Neuroscience, Class of 2025)  \nContact  \nIf you have questions about this proposal, or are interested in discussing it further, please email Sarah Newman, Director of Art & Education at metaLAB (at) Harvard.  \nSummary  \nKey Points  \n1. There should not be a blanket ban on generative AI tools at Harvard. Instead, there should be course-specific policies chosen by faculty, with guidance from the administration.  \n2. Policies on the use of generative AI tools should include a plan for regular reviewing and updating.  \n3. In all courses, students should receive an officia l, written policy clearly stating permitted and prohibited uses of generative AI tools and grading policies related to the use of generative AI tools in the particular course.  \nSuggestions: Implementation, Framing, & Resources  \n1","cbCairJpDl6dZ7TL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairJpDl6dZ7TL","pdf",129190,9,"English","# Proposed Harvard AI “Code of Conduct”\n## I.
