HKU's Guidelines on the Responsible Use of Generative AI in Research were formally approved by the Senate on September 23, 2025 and are now in effect.
HKU states that researchers should clearly disclose generative AI tool usage in research outputs, publications, and presentations, including the type of GenAI used, data sources, and potential limitations.
HKU states that input data used with generative AI should comply with data protection laws and university policies, and that users should avoid sharing sensitive, confidential, or proprietary information with GenAI platforms.
HKU holds researchers responsible for the outputs generated by generative AI and their implications; GenAI should be used as a support tool, not a substitute for critical analysis and human expertise.
HKU states that researchers should ensure generative AI use does not infringe existing intellectual property rights or compromise research output ownership.
HKU's GenAI research guidelines are positioned as an institutional policy under the Research Integrity framework, approved by Senate in September 2025.
