6 claim records
USI's general rule permits use of generative AI tools unless a specific activity explicitly prohibits them, and says use must be correctly acknowledged.
USI student recommendations say students must follow teachers' instructions for GenAI use in written work; complete drafting of exam papers, dissertations, or final papers with GenAI is generally not permitted, and unauthorised use is academic fraud subject to study-regulation penalties.
USI maintains a public generative-AI guidance hub and June 2025 recommendations for both students and teaching staff; the Desk page says those recommendations expand and replace earlier 2023 communications.
USI teaching-staff recommendations advise teachers to clearly communicate what students should, can, and cannot do with GenAI tools for course learning activities and to include relevant information in the course syllabus.
USI recommendations say GenAI use should account for data protection and that confidential documents and sensitive data should not be shared with GenAI tools.
USI teaching-staff recommendations strongly discourage reliance on tools designed to detect GenAI-generated text, saying suspected misuse should follow normal misconduct procedures defined in faculty study regulations.
