How to use AI as a student
If your course allows for it, you can utilise artificial intelligence (AI) for assignments and submissions where all resources are permitted. Examples of AI includes ChatGPT, GPT UiO and Microsoft Copilot. Make sure to familiarise yourself with what AI is and the recommended practices for its use.
The rules for using AI will vary between courses and assignments. Always ask your lecturer if you are uncertain about what is permitted.
Guidelines for using AI
- Use AI as a support, not as a replacement for your own work.
- Clearly indicate when and how you have utilised AI.
- AI can be a supplement for understanding topics, curriculum, and terminology, but always verify the information against reliable sources.
- Avoid sharing sensitive information and copyrighted material in AI tools without approval.
Using AI tools in your studies (ChatGPT, GPT UiO, Copilot)
- In this context, artificial intelligence (AI) primarily refers to large language models such as ChatGPT, GPT UiO, and Microsoft Copilot.
- We recommend using GPT UiO or Microsoft Copilot, as this ensures your data is secure. Neither personal information nor data you input will be shared further, and conversations will not be used to train future models.
- These tools can generate text, summarise information, suggest ideas, and answer questions by analysing patterns from vast amounts of text.
- They can be useful tools, but they have limitations – they do not understand the content they produce and can make mistakes.
