“Academic integrity is a commitment, even in the face of adversity, to six fundamental values: honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility, and courage. From these values flow principles of behavior that enable academic communities to translate ideals into action.”(https://academicintegrity.org/)
Artificial Intelligence: Friend, Foe, or Neither? Written by Courtney Cullen February 7, 2023 https://academicintegrity.org/resources/blog/422-artificial-intelligence-friend-foe-or-neither
1. Are you disclosing the authorship of the text?
2. Are you fact-checking the text being produced?
3. Are you considering the potential bias of any generative AI you are using? How can you account for that bias?
4. What credit and/or compensation is due the creators whose work was used to train the AI? Do such programs pose a threat to the future employment of artists and designers?
5. When is it ethical to use video of people without their consent?
Wired ChatGPT Is Making Universities Rethink Plagiarism: Students and professors can’t decide whether the AI chatbot is a research tool—or a cheating engine. Sofia Barnett JAN 30, 2023 Not everyone shares Cobbs’ disdain. Ever since OpenAI launched the chatbot in November, educators have been struggling with how to handle a new wave of student work produced with the help of artificial intelligence. While some public school systems, like New York City’s, have banned the use of ChatGPT on school devices and networks to curb cheating, universities have been reluctant to follow suit. In higher education, the introduction of generative AI has raised thorny questions about the definition of plagiarism and academic integrity on campuses where new digital research tools come into play all the time.
Write Rethink Against the use of GPTZero and other LLM-detection tools on student writing Whitney Gegg-Harrison FEB 27, 2023 To be very clear from the outset: I’m neither strongly “for” nor “against” using LLMs in the writing classroom; I think there are use-cases that could be quite pedagogically valuable AND I think there are good reasons to be skeptical about the value of bringing LLM-generated text into the classroom (and there are very legitimate ethical concerns as well). But I also don’t think LLMs are going away, so regardless of whether we do or don’t use LLMs in our classrooms, we do need to be talking about them with our students, and helping them to develop critical AI literacy.
NPR : 'Everybody is cheating': Why this teacher has adopted an open ChatGPT policy JAN 26, 2023 5:01 AM ET 5 minutes Ethan Mollick of the University of Pennsylvania vacillates between enthusiasm and anxiety about the sudden change of AI, but requires his students use it in the classroom. For those who don't have writing talent or are not native born English speakers, Chat GPT may level the playing field. Cheating is ubiquitous, so why not embrace the new technology?
NPR: 'Know It All': What Is AI and How Will It Shape the Future? MAY 10, 2023 3:18 PM 32 minutes Machine learning analyzes data and matches patterns. The common feature of AI is that it generates the average of previously created texts or images. All systems are optimized at a different level, therefore some are better at code and others are better at art creation. The difference between AI and human brains is a mix of probability and how well the prompt is initially crafted. Checking the output of these systems for accuracy and bias is essential. The last part of the discussion talks about how AI might replace workers and certain tasks over time.
