4 reviewed claims

University of Bristol guidance for taught degree programmes uses a four-category system for AI use in assessments, from Category 1 (prohibited) to Category 4 (integral, AI required). Using AI or translation tools for more than generating occasional short phrases or checking basic grammar and spelling is treated as cheating unless assessment instructions allow more comprehensive use. For research degrees, generative AI tools may not be used to write any text used in theses or APM reports.
