Responsible Use of Gen AI in Research/Coursework

It is critical to be cautious in the use of Gen AI in social sciences research, this includes its use in coursework. The use of Gen AI should always be disclosed, and in some cases it should be outright avoided. Openly communicate any questions or ideas about using AI in your assignments with your instructor. You may also find clarity in your syllabus, or here in the UF student Honor Code

(e) Plagiarism. A Student must not represent as the Student’s own work all or any portion of the work of another person or Entity."  It defines entity "This includes but is not limited to generative artificial intelligence, large language models, content generation bots, or other non-human intelligence or digital tools."

Disclosure and/or citation are best practices for including and citing/clarifying the use of Gen AI in your work. Below are some resources and considerations for how to do so.
