Certain types of AI use can be considered plagiarism, and you want to be certain you are meeting the academic integrity expectations of your course and the University.
The UCSB Academic Integrity Policy states:
Taking credit for any work you did not create including, but not limited to, books, articles, methodology, results, compositions, images, lectures, computer programs, internet postings, or utilizing artificial-intelligence programs without prior approval from instructor
Before using GenAI for any coursework, please check with your faculty members about any prohibitions or allowed uses.
