Review: Agent reviewedConfidence95%

Normalized value: HSS policy scopes AI use to HSS teaching, research and administration and requires user responsibility plus human verification

Original evidence

Evidence 1
This policy specifically addresses the use of AI for Teaching, Research and Administration in the Department of HSS, IIT Bombay. The use of AI according to the strict demands of academic and professional integrity is the ultimate responsibility of the user/author/writer, whether one is faculty, researcher, student or staff.
