Warning!

***Please note that A.I. detectors are not always reliable or accurate. The detectors listed are to provide resources for educational purposes.*** 

"Even though AI detectors do not work, that doesn't mean a human can never detect AI writing. For example, a teacher familiar with a student's typical writing style can tell when their style or capability suddenly changes. Also, some sloppy attempts to pass off AI-generated work as human-written can leave tell-tale signs, such as "A.I. language model," meaning someone copied and pasted ChatGPT output without being careful. Recently, an article in the scientific journal Nature showed how humans noticed the phrase "Regenerate response" in a scientific paper, which is the label of a button in ChatGPT" (Text adapted from Benj Edward's article OpenAI confirms A.I. that AI writing detectors don't work).

Bias & Fake Citations

Bias and artificial hallucination (fake citations/references - references created by A.I.) exist within all A.I. You'll have to use A.I. literacy to double-check your citations if you use any generative A.I. for your research. 

A.I. literacy includes:

  • The ethical use of A.I. (why and when, and awareness of issues such as data ownership, privacy, legality, and hidden labor),
  • Knowledge of A.I. affordances (what are the capabilities and limitations of each A.I. tool; A.I. over 1000 AI tools are available),
  • How to work effectively with A.I. tools (A.I. has how to formulate practical questions, construct good prompts, called "prompt engineering" and refinement strategies),
  • How to evaluate the output (thinking, critique, and evaluative judgment are essential skills regardless), and finally,
  • Use and integrate these tools into your practices for study and work purposes. (Source: Mathew Hillier, Why does ChatGPT generate fake references? 2023)

MCCC Policy

Things to Keep in Mind:

1. You are discouraged from using AI tools unless you are under the professor's direct instruction. Please get in touch with your professor if you are unsure or have questions before using AI for any assignment.

2. If AI is permitted to be used, you must indicate what part of the assignment was crafted by AI and what your work was. If you have received permission, no more than 25% of a project should be created with AI.

3. You may not submit any work generated by an AI program as your own. Suppose you include material generated by an AI program. In that case, it should be cited like any other reference material (with due consideration for the quality of the reference, which may be poor).

4. Since writing, analytical, and critical thinking skills are part of the learning outcomes of this course, all writing assignments should be prepared by the student. Developing strong competencies in this area will prepare you for a competitive workplace. Therefore, AI-generated submissions are not permitted and will be treated as plagiarism. The Code of Ethics is important, and plagiarism is a severe offense at MCCC.

5. Some student work may be randomly submitted to AI or plagiarism detection tools to ensure it is human-created. Submitting AI-generated answers constitutes plagiarism and violates the MCCC Student Code of Ethics. Using these tools without permission puts your academic integrity at risk.
