Default rule默认规则

作业未说明可否使用 AI 时,适用何种规则?When an assignment says nothing about AI, what applies?

Arts & Sciences states that faculty determine whether, how, and to what extent AI may be used. The Learning Center offers a cautious practical default: when no explicit policy exists, students should not assume permission.

Students must follow the expectations established for each course and ask for clarification before using AI when the rule is uncertain. Arts & Sciences states that faculty determine whether, how, and to what extent AI may be used.

编码说明CODING NOTEFaculty set the per-course rule, but the university integrity policy still binds; citation does not legitimize a use the course prohibits.

The central undergraduate policy treats misuse of AI as an academic-integrity issue and directs students to cite AI-generated material as they would traditionally published material, using the citation style required by the instructor.

编码说明CODING NOTECentral policy directs citation of AI-generated material; Arts & Sciences adds disclosure of whether, when, and how AI was used.

Verification and responsibility

Students remain responsible for their submissions. WashU warns that AI can invent facts and citations and reproduce bias; output should be vetted, double-checked against reliable sources, and not treated as a trusted research source merely because it sounds confident.核实责任Verification duty WashU IT likewise assigns users responsibility for verifying generated content.

AI detection

The reviewed central and student-facing sources do not state a university-wide position on detector reliability. Silence should not be read as approval; academic-integrity findings should rely on meaningful evidence and fair process rather than an unexplained score.

以下为整理者所写的高中适用要点,非该校原文,不作为任何条款的依据。Below: the collector’s notes on application to high school — not the university’s text, and not used as evidence for any provision.

High-school adaptation takeaways

  • Publish an AI rule for every assignment; students should ask rather than assume permission.
  • Require a short AI-use note naming the tool and explaining what it contributed.
  • Require students to verify claims and open every cited source.
  • Prohibit uploading classmates’ work, teacher materials, student records, or confidential content.
  • Do not base discipline solely on an AI-detector score.
