Ethical AI Use in Academic Projects

The lecture provides a comprehensive guide for students on ethically integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT, into academic projects. It emphasizes that AI should function as a thought partner to enhance work, rather than a replacement for critical thinking and personal effort. The video outlines four essential rules for responsible AI use, stressing the need for transparency, verification of AI-generated information, and protecting personal data. Appropriate uses include brainstorming, summarizing concepts, and refining grammar, while overuse is warned against as it stifles growth and risks academic dishonesty. Ultimately, the video encourages students to become responsible AI innovators who prioritize their unique voice and intellectual contributions over reliance on automated generation.
