ChatGPT
First check your course guide to see whether (and in what way) you may use GenAI in your course. In case there is no information in your course guide, using AI to generate the content of your assignments is considered fraud.
ChatGPT (https://chat.openai.com/) is a chatbot that produces text of any length, style, and format based on prompts. You can use it in multiple ways: for example, while brainstorming on an assignment topic, for help with studying, or for practicing for debates. We see a lot of people using ChatGPT like they use Google, but be aware it’s not a search engine! To use ChatGPT most effectively, knowing how to write good prompts is important. Be very clear as to what you want from it, provide context, and give it a role. More advice on how to write good prompts can be found online (for example, here).
