11 # The University of Auckland AI policy record
2+ai_tool_treatment: The University of Auckland's Assessment of Courses Procedures state that AI use in assessment tasks may only be restricted when the task is a controlled assessment, identified as Lane 1; AI may be used without restriction in other assessment tasks, identified as Lane 2.
3+Evidence (en, cb08abc2372c): In accordance with the University's two-lane approach, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in assessment tasks may only be restricted if the assessment task is a controlled assessment (lane 1). AI may be used without restriction in all other assessment tasks (lane 2).
4+teaching: The University of Auckland's Assessment of Courses Procedures require courses to use the two-lane nomenclature, including telling students which assessments align with Lane 1 or Lane 2, and require courses and programmes to implement the two-lane approach in assessment design by 2027.
5+Evidence (en, cb08abc2372c): Courses must use nomenclature of the two-lane approach, including specifying to students which assessments align with lane 1 or lane 2. Courses and programmes will be required to implement the two-lane approach in assessment design by 2027.
6+academic_integrity: The University of Auckland's student AI advice states that AI has no agency, treats the student prompting an AI tool as the author, and says students are ultimately responsible for work submitted for assessment.
7+Evidence (en, af6afff22fcf): The university takes the position that AI has no agency. What this means is that the student who is prompting the AI tool is to be treated as the author. As the author, each student is responsible for the work generated by the AI tool, and this may include expressly acknowledging the use of the tool.
8+academic_integrity: The University of Auckland's permitted-software assessment guideline says Gen-AI may not be permitted for assessment activities where the assessed skills overlap with functions performed by Gen-AI, and says use of non-permitted software may be considered a breach of academic integrity.
9+Evidence (en, 443060225a8b): Generative AI (Gen-AI) may not be permitted for assessment activities where the skills assessed overlap with functions performed by Gen-AI. Use of software which is not permitted may be considered a breach of academic integrity and of the Student Academic Conduct Statute.
10+ai_tool_treatment: The University of Auckland TeachWell two-lane assessment guidance says the University does not endorse third-party AI detection tools, citing unreliability, false positives, and possible student-data training risks.
11+Evidence (en-NZ, 761944312730): The University of Auckland does not endorse the use of third-party AI detection tools, as these may be unreliable, create false positives, and may use student data to train their models.
12+academic_integrity: Auckland Law School's student AI guidelines for taught courses state that using AI to generate, draft, or assist in creating content for graded assignments is prohibited unless the instructor explicitly permits it in writing.
13+Evidence (en, f9903aef06d5): The use of AI to generate, draft, or assist in creating content for any graded assignment is prohibited, unless your instructor explicitly permits otherwise in writing (in your course outline or on Canvas).
14+privacy: The University of Auckland's public TeachWell explainer for the AI Usage Standard says users should assess data against the University's data classification before submitting it to an AI tool, and says restricted data should not be used with AI chat services.
15+Evidence (en-NZ, 06a9e04ba9fa): For example, it requires you to assess any data according to the University's data classification before you submit the data to an AI tool. The University has four data classifications: public, internal, sensitive, restricted. You should only use AI tools that are appropriate for the type of data you're working with.
