Guidelines for using artificial anitelligence (AI) in student assignments

AI tools such as Sikt AI-chat (ChatGPT), Copilot and similar applications are considered regular study aids. By AI tools, we mean various types of artificial intelligence, from large language models to AI tools for image analysis or analysis of large datasets.

You can use AI tools when an exam or assignment permits "all aids". Always check the course plan or exam instructions. If AI tools are not permitted, this will be specifically stated there.

It is considered academic misconduct if you use AI when it is not allowed. If you copy text, images, code or other content generated by AI directly into your assignment without making the reader or examiner aware of this, it is the same as presenting others' work as your own. This is considered academic misconduct.

Because AI does not function like a regular source, you should not include the use of AI in your reference list or mark it in the text in the same way as other sources. When you cite sources, others should be able to find the same information. This is not possible with AI, since the tool creates new and unique text each time you ask.

The best approach is to explain how and why you have used AI. State which tool you used, for example "Sikt AI-chat", and preferably also what you asked about. If you copy text, images or other material directly from the AI tool, you must mark it clearly with quotation marks, italics or indentation, and add a footnote explaining where the text comes from.
