Like any resource, if you use generative AI for a project, you must cite your use of it. While APA, Chicago, and MLA have all released guidance for citing generative AI, the nature of generative AI and the scholarly community's stance on it are both evolving quickly. As a result, make sure that you always consult the most recent style guides for information on how to cite this type of information.
If you are planning to use generative AI for a class assignment, please double check your syllabus or talk to your professor to confirm that doing so will not violate class academic integrity policies.
If you are planning to publish your research and would like to use generative AI during your process, please make sure to keep track of your usage as many journals' and publishers' policies regarding the use of generative AI are ever-evolving.
If you have any questions about using or citing generative AI in your research, connect with a librarian.
