The determination of appropriate uses for generative AI can be facilitated through discussion with colleagues within and among disciplines. Discussions that can help our communities to answer
- What is the ethical use of AI in society, in a given scholarly discipline, and in instruction?
- How does generative AI pose ethical challenges to issues such as data security and privacy?
- What types of information should and should not be inputted into an AI system?
- When does generative AI-assistance become AI-ownership? What are the limits to using generative AI in support of academic work?
- How should a student cite or disclose the use of generative AI relative to their academic work?
- How does the course/instructor define plagiarism and academic dishonesty relate to AI? What are the penalties for not following the policy? Many of philosophies and policies outlined on the OSSA Academic Integrity website already apply, and additional specific guidance is available on FAQs specifically addressing generative AI.
