It's important to note that this decision may vary among theses, even when they share the same examiner. Consequently, you may have permission to employ AI tools for tasks such as generating text, code, and conducting data analysis, among other applications. However, this is contingent upon executing these tasks in a responsible and transparent manner, as outlined below. You are required to assume full responsibility You are required to assume full responsibility for your work and must be capable of justifying the choices you've made regarding its content. This includes engaging in discussions about and defending the role AI played in shaping your thesis, demonstrating a clear understanding of how it contributed. When using AI tools in your thesis work, it's crucial to approach them responsibly, which means ethically, ensuring data integrity and academic honesty. This involves: Being cautious of over-reliance on AI, which includes the risks of uncritically accepting AI-generated answers that can be biased or wrong. For example, do not uncritically accept a rewrite of your text, code, literature review, or analysis of your data. Understanding the potential for plagiarism and copyright infringements. For example, GitHub Copilot has used copyright protected code when helping programmers to code, so always be wary of such problems. That the use of AI tools must be clear and transparent. At a minimum, provide a description detailing how and to what extent AI tools have been utilized in your work.

It’s not always clear whether your prompts or the material you upload to chatbots are used as training data for the AI companies’ language models. In some chatbots, it’s possible to change the settings and disable this feature, but some require you to use the paid version to turn it off. Because of this, you should not upload material that contains sensitive or private information, or any material protected by copyright law, for example PDFs of scientific articles that you’ve downloaded from library databases. If you have text intended for a thesis, dissertation, or scientific publication, you should not submit it to a chatbot, as doing so may mean relinquishing your copyright to that material.

You are entitled to finish writing an exam that is in progress, even if attempted cheating is suspected, for example if cheat sheets have been discovered. Written tests or assignments submitted for assessment should be attached to the report and not marked until the case has been adjudicated. How will I know if I have been suspected of cheating? If you have been reported for attempted deception, you will be informed in writing of the suspicion and allowed to comment in writing on the report. If the case goes to the Disciplinary Committee, you are able to provide verbal information to the Committee if you wish. You will be represented by a student support person but another support person will also be allowed to attend the Disciplinary Committee’s meeting. What happens at a meeting of the Disciplinary Committee? A meeting of the Disciplinary Committee begins with the case being presented. You then have the opportunity to comment and answer questions. You must leave the room while the Disciplinary Committee deliberates and makes a decision on the matter. When a decision has been made, you are called back in and informed of the decision. You may be acquitted, warned or suspended. You may appeal against the decision by the Disciplinary Committee to Chalmers University Board. Appeals must be made in writing to the Registrar, be addressed to the President and reach Chalmers no later than three weeks after the Committee’s decision was communicated to you.

Disciplinary measures The disciplinary measures that can be taken at Chalmers are a warning, suspension from studies for a certain period or expulsion from Chalmers. A decision to issue a warning results in a disciplinary note in the Chalmers’ register. The note remains in the register until graduation or for at most three years. A suspension decision means that the student may not take part in instruction, examinations or other activities as part of their course or study programme at Chalmers. The decision may cover suspension from only instruction, examinations or other activities. The decision shall apply to a limited period of time, but at most six months. A student on a course or study programme at Chalmers can be expelled under the conditions stated in these Rules of Discipline. The decision can apply to a specific course or study programme at Chalmers or to all courses and study programmes at Chalmers. This decision applies until further notice. The Disciplinary Committee has to reconsider the case at the request of the student. Such a request may not be made until two years after the expulsion decision was issued. The Committee may not decide to issue a warning or suspend a student if more than two years have passed since the breach took place. Decision criteria A student may be warned or suspended if they: 1. make an attempt to mislead in connection with an examination or other assessment of study performance; 2. disturb or impede teaching, an examination or other activity at Chalmers; 3. subject any other student or employee at Chalmers to harassment violating their integrity within activities at Chalmers; or 4. breach Chalmers’ rules or other regulations for students in some other way. The Committee can only decide to expel a student if: 1. it is deemed that there is a manifest risk that the student may harm themselves or some other person or damage valuable property during their course or study programme on account of, for example, mental disturbance or misuse of alcohol or drugs; or 2. the student is guilty of serious criminal activity.
