Academic Integrity

Waseda University's university-wide April 2023 statement warns students that submitting a paper created by generative AI as-is is treated as misconduct similar to cheating, and that plagiarism, inappropriate citation, or fabrication in submitted work can expose the student to disciplinary action.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence94%

Normalized value: Submitting unexamined or as-is generative-AI-created work can trigger academic misconduct consequences.

Original evidence

Evidence 1
生成AIが作成した論文等を学生の皆さんがよく精査せずにそのまま提出した場合、内容に不備や致命的な誤りがあったとしても、それを基に評価がされるばかりでなく、本人が意図せずとも、提出された論文等に剽窃や不適切な引用、捏造等が確認された場合は、当該学生自身が懲戒処分の対象となりうる点にも注意が必要です。もちろん、生成AIが作成した論文等をそのまま提出すれば、それだけでカンニング等と同様の不正行為となり処罰されます。

Waseda warns that submitting unexamined AI-created papers may still be evaluated and can expose the student to discipline if plagiarism, inappropriate citation, or fabrication is found; submitting AI-created papers as-is is misconduct similar to cheating.

Original evidence

Evidence 1
①生成AIツールの使用を一律で禁止することは行いませんが、慎重に利用することが求められます。②各授業における生成AIツールの利用の可否は各担当教員が決定します。各担当教員の指示に従ってください。③それぞれの授業において設定されている学習目標を達成するためには知識を身につけ、思考力を向上させることが必要です。この観点から、課題等の提出物の作成をすべて生成AIにゆだねることは認められません。

Ai Tool Treatment

Waseda's official Support Anywhere page describes its student-support chatbot as powered by generative AI and warns that answers can be inferred and may differ from the latest information or facts, so important procedures and policies should be checked against official Support Anywhere pages and the student's school or graduate school.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence86%

Normalized value: Official Support Anywhere chatbot uses generative AI but is not authoritative for important procedures or policies.

Original evidence

Evidence 1
The Support Anywhere chatbot generates answers based on the information published on the Support Anywhere website. However, depending on the content of your question, relevant information may not be found. In such cases, the generative AI (artificial intelligence) may create an answer based on inference. As a result, some answers may differ from the latest information or actual facts. For important procedures or policies, please always refer to the information provided on the official Support Anywhere webpages and your affiliated school or graduate school.
