The UC Berkeley Academic Senate recommends that all faculty include a clear statement on their syllabus about course expectations regarding the use of Google Gemini or any other generative AI tool for course-related work. In the absence of such a statement, students may be more likely to use these technologies inappropriately.

In the absence of such a statement, students may be more likely to use these technologies inappropriately.

The UC Berkeley Academic Senate provides three sample syllabus statement frameworks for faculty: 'Full AI' (GenAI required), 'Some AI' (limited permitted use with restrictions), and 'No AI' (all GenAI use prohibited). Faculty should modify these to fit their course requirements.
