Required
MIT advises disclosure of generative-AI use for academic, educational, and research-related uses. Scope: MIT community guidance.
You should disclose the use of generative AI tools for all academic, educational, and research-related uses. Do not publish research results that rely on content generated through the use of a generative AI tool without disclosing the nature of the use of such generative AI tool in producing the content.
Restricted
MIT states that no generative-AI tool is approved for High Risk MIT information, and public tools are not recommended for MIT research or educational activities.
No Generative AI tools, including those licensed by IS&T, are approved for use with High Risk MIT information. Additionally, we do not recommend using publicly available GenAI tools not subject to an Institute licensing agreement for your MIT research and educational activities, including with Low Risk or Medium Risk information.
No Generative AI tools, including those licensed by IS&T, are approved for use with High Risk MIT information. Additionally, we do not recommend using publicly available GenAI tools not subject to an Institute licensing agreement for your MIT research and educational activities. See IS&T's guidance for the use of generative AI tools for full details and recommendations.

Conditional
MIT maintains an IS&T-licensed approved-tools list for low- and medium-risk information. A listed tool is an institutional path, not permission for a particular class, exam, or research output.

Required
MIT guidance calls for disclosure when research results rely on AI-generated content. No broader MIT authorship rule is asserted here.
You should disclose the use of generative AI tools for all academic, educational, and research-related uses. Do not publish research results that rely on content generated through the use of a generative AI tool without disclosing the nature of the use of such generative AI tool in producing the content.
