OC Academic Integrity Policy
The OC Academic Integrity Policy governs student and faculty academic conduct.
Pay close attention to Section 6, Academic Violations.
Subsection (b) Cheating (iv) "unless permitted by the Instructor/Tutor, a Student using artificial intelligence tools for coursework submitted for evaluation".
In layperson's language, using Artificial Intelligence in your coursework is an academic violation unless authorized by your instructor.
Subsection (a) Plagiarism (i) submits or presents work of another person or from artificial intelligence, in whole or part, as that of the Student's own work;
In layperson's language, using Artificial Intelligence to generate content and cutting and pasting it directly from the Artificial Intelligence application into your assignment or research paper is considered an academic violation.
You need to paraphrase the content and properly cite the source of that information.
If you are suspected of violating the OC Academic integrity policy you can be held to account for your actions under the Procedures for Academic Integrity Misconduct.
