Use of Generative AI
Generative AI is a form of AI that can create something new based on the data it is trained on. Because of that, it could be wrong sometimes. You are encouraged to use it responsibly in the course, which means you can use it to find facts quickly, but you must verify the information. Please note AI is not a source of acceptable opinions in this course. You can use AI to find references to justify an opinion, but your opinion is yours alone and cannot be AI-generated. If you use an AI tool in your coursework, you must provide in-text citations and add them to the reference list. Please refer to the examples in the following article. All your coursework may be turned into Turnitin to check for authenticity, including the discussion posts.
