Using Ai to help with your work is bound to be a game changer. But you must be sure to use it correctly and appropriately - basically don't use it to cheat and don't use it to plagierise others work and you will be fine.

AI is used in all sorts of products, from face recognition to automated delivery robots. For you though it can be used to help with your studies.

How can it be used?

Use it to help with gathering information and resources

Use chatbots like chat GTP to ask it questions and gather useful bits of information. Then use that information to compile your own documents and content. 

 

 

Use it to create imagery and ideas.

Not sure how to use it?

Watch this for guidance:

“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.”

—Spike Jonze

Positive ways to use AI

Use AI to help generate ideas - you still have to choose the focus/ features you want it to include and communicate suggestions appropriately. Add to the ideas to make them suit your brief as required.

Use AI to gather research/ information about specific areas you need for your project - then compile it appropriately for your project - what key bits/ details are useful from the info you have discovered. (do NOT CTRL+C/ CTRL+v)

Support AI findings with other suitable research/ information.

Evaluate and conclude AI findings as a point of research.

CAUTION - WARNING - CAUTION - WARNING - CAUTIOn - warning

Getting carriried away with the use of AI can be dangerous and ultimately, if you use it incorrectly can lead to work being submitted that is not yours. If this happens, you could find yourself not being entered for your exams.

Things to watch out for:

AI chatbots often produce answers which may seem convincing but contain incorrect or biased information

Some AI chatbots have been identified as providing dangerous and harmful answers to questions

produce fake references to books/ articles by real or fake people.

Examples of AI misuse include, but are not limited to, the following:

Copying or paraphrasing sections of AI-generated content so that the work is no longer the student’s own

• Copying or paraphrasing whole responses of AI-generated content

 

Using AI to complete parts of the assessment so that the work does not reflect the student’s own work, analysis, evaluation or calculations

• Failing to acknowledge use of AI tools when they have been used as a source of information

 

Incomplete or poor acknowledgement of AI tools

 

• Submitting work with intentionally incomplete or misleading references or bibliographies.

students must submit work for assessments which is their own
