    Study Notes

    Ethical Considerations of Using Generative AI

    • Generative AI collects data about the user, which is used to provide responses, but the data's protection and sourcing are important ethical considerations.

    Evaluating the Ethics of Generative AI Use

    • It is crucial to consider the tool's collection and use of data, attribution of sources, and potential conflicts with task goals.
    • Users must check the exam policy on permitted use of generative AI and properly reference the tool according to the MQ resource guide.

    Academic Misconduct and Generative AI

    • Academic misconduct can occur when generative AI is used in prohibited assignments or not properly referenced.
    • Plagiarism by the tool is possible, and users should be aware of this risk.

    The Importance of AI Literacy

    • Using generative AI in university studies can improve time efficiency and develop AI literacy, a valuable skill in the modern workforce.
    • However, users must recognize that AI lacks the capacity for independent judgment, which can compromise the validity and credibility of information.

    Evaluating the Reliability of Generative AI Responses

    • The CRAPP-E acronym can be used to evaluate the reliability of generative AI responses:

      C (Currency)

      • Consider the tool's creation date and the currency of the information it uses.
      • Evaluate if new data or tools have been developed since the tool's creation.

      R (Relevance)

      • Determine if the tool's responses meet your needs and are relevant to your topic.
      • Recognize that the quality of responses depends on the user's research skills and prompt framing.

      A (Accuracy)

      • Assess the accuracy of the tool's responses and the presence of citations or references.
      • Verify the authenticity of citations and supporting information.

      A (Authority)

      • Identify the tool creators and their expertise, including the company mission and resources.
      • Recognize the potential biases and perspectives of the tool creators.

      P (Purpose)

      • Determine the purpose of the tool's creation and its potential influence on the user's thought patterns and activities.
      • Evaluate if the tool's design promotes certain patterns of thought and activity.
