SALT Center Statement on the Use of Generative AI

What is Generative AI?  

Generative AI are artificial intelligence (AI) models that answer questions in a conversational way. Instead of returning a series of websites like a search engine, generative AI provides a summarized sentence, paragraph, or essay. It can even write poetry. ChatGPT, Bard, and DALL-E are examples of generative AI models.  

  • AI is a tool you might use as part of the learning process and it is not a replacement for your own critical thinking.

Academic Integrity   

Generative AI models should never be used to write papers or assignments for you. Doing so violates the university’s academic integrity policy. Academic integrity is trustworthiness about where you got your information and how your finished product was made. Original work is an expectation at the university level.    

Your instructors will provide more guidance about whether generative AI can be used in their courses. You can face penalties for academic integrity violations using generative AI. 

Go to a Gear Up!  Attend our hands-on Ed Tech Workshops!

Gear-Ups will be held during the first week of school to help new students get ready for academic success. These hands-on workshops focus on digital organization. We will install essential software, go over important UA applications, and assist in setting up a productive, digital workspace. Incoming students will be pre-assigned a workshop time. Times will be sent via email, and students will be reminded at the New Student Experience before the semester begins.
