Cite any text that the AI generated (even if you edited it) with a bibliography entry that includes the name and version of the AI model that you used, the date and time it was used, and includes the exact query or prompt that you used to get the results.  \n2. Cite, as described in rule 1, any code that you had it generate for you. I recommend that you not ask it to write code for you. Doing so will probably be more work than simply writing it yourself. Because:  \na. You must thoroughly test the code to prove that it works.  \nb. You must explain what you did to verify that it works.  \nc. To demonstrate that you understand it, you must comment every single logical object be it a data structure or line or short block of code that it generates. I.e. exactly what that bit of code does and how it does it.  \nd. The code must follow the other rules. For example the assignment may have stated restrictions on methods, procedures, external libraries, or programs.  \ne. It must generate the results that are asked for in the assignment instructions.  \nI hope that by following these rules you will learn how to use generative AI as an assistant to increase your productivity in writing and coding. If you fail to follow these rules, that will be an honor code violation and you will be referred to the Honor Council.  \nPrinceton University McGraw Center for Teaching and Learning  \nWe encourage faculty to be explicit about their AI/ChatGPT policy in their syllabus, on Canvas, and during class. We offer two sample syllabus statements below:  \n1. Intellectual honesty is vital to an academic community and for my fair evaluation of your work. All work submitted in this course must be your own, completed in accordance with the University’s academic regulations. You may not engage in unauthorized collaboration or make use of ChatGPT or other AI composition software.  \n2. Students must obtain permission from me before using AI composition software (like ChatGPT) for any assignments in this course. Using these tools without my permission puts your academic integrity at risk.  \nUniversity of Pennsylvania Center for Teaching and Learning  \n● You are not allowed to use ChatGPT (or tools like it) foryour work for this class. Using such tools will be considered a violation of Penn’s Code of Academic Integrity and suspected use will be reported to the Center for Community Standards & Accountability. Please contact me if you have any questions about this policy.  \n● You may use ChatGPT and otherAI assistants foryour work in this class but you must contact me for permission first so we can discuss how you plan to use these tools and how you will indicate their use in your work. If you do not first request permission, using such tools will be considered a violation of Penn’s Code of Academic Integrity.  \nDuke Learning Innovation-AI and Teaching at Duke-Recommendations for  \nCourse Policies  \nWe suggest that faculty make it clear to students what their expectations are regarding the use of AI at the outset of the particular course. For example, you might allow the use of AI for generating early ideas and drafts but require that use be cited as part of the work. However, you might choose to expressly forbid the use of AI to develop other written assignments.  \nExplaining how the use of AI can constitute cheating or plagiarism is a must.  \nInstructors have discretion in setting specific AI policies to fit their course and individual assignments. Here are some recommendations for how to do so:  \nPlagiarism  \nInstructors should choose poli","cbCaiqzS7QN0R76p","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqzS7QN0R76p","pdf",173180,10,"English","# Syllabus Statements for Generative AI and ChatGPT Usage\n## Core rules for citing AI output and prompts\n## University sample policies and permission requirements\n## Recommendations for plagiarism, cheating, attribution, and acceptable use","[{\"question\":\"What citation details are required when using generative AI for coursework?\",\"answer\":\"The policy requires citing any AI-generated text, including the AI model name and version, the date and time used, and the exact query or prompt used.
