Unless you have explicit permission from an examiner as written in the course guide, using AI to generate the content of your assignment is considered fraud (Article 16, paragraph 3 of the 2023-2024 Rules & Regulations). Examiners can request an additional oral verification of your assignment in case of doubt. Suspicions of AI fraud will be investigated by the Examining Boards in a similar way as they investigate plagiarism. Besides prohibiting this specific usage of AI tools, the Examining Boards stress a few important points.

• First, you may use AI only to support essential academic skills like critical reflection, literature research, and scientific writing, not to replace those skills.
• You are always held accountable for the correctness, completeness, and coherence of your (written) assignments.
• When using AI in an assignment, you should acknowledge this usage and reflect on how it impacts your assignment. See “How do I use (generative) AI responsibly?” for more information on how to cite AI tools in your academic texts.
