Referencing the use of generative AI in your work
01/02/2024
We recognise that Artificial Intelligence (AI) has, and will increasingly, become a part of our everyday lives and that we need to adapt to it. Hopefully you will have already seen the provisional guidance for staff and students that has been published on the University intranet.
- Considerations for using generative AI in academic work.
- Acknowledging the use of generative AI in academic work.
- In-text citations and inclusion of AI generated output in a reference list.
- Use of standardised referencing styles.
Please note that this advice is also provisional and will also change over time, so please refer back to it often in case we make any updates.
If you have any questions about referencing AI in your work, please get in touch with us.
