UseSyllabus < ChatGPT

Tags: view all tags
Last note - Ryan Baker (a colleague of mine from my time at CMU) proposed this change to his syllabus, maybe you would like to use it, modify it to your context, or create your own:

--------
Within this class, you are welcome to use foundation models (!ChatGPT, GPT, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, !GitHub Copilot, and anything after) in a totally unrestricted fashion, for any purpose, at no penalty. However, you should note that all large language models still have a tendency to make up incorrect facts and fake citations, code generation models have a tendency to produce inaccurate outputs, and image generation models can occasionally come up with highly offensive products. You will be responsible for any inaccurate, biased, offensive, or otherwise unethical content you submit regardless of whether it originally comes from you or a foundation model. If you use a foundation model, its contribution must be acknowledged in the handin; you will be penalized for using a foundation model without acknowledgement. Having said all these disclaimers, the use of foundation models is encouraged, as it may make it possible for you to submit assignments with higher quality, in less time.

The university's policy on plagiarism still applies to any uncited or improperly cited use of work by other human beings, or submission of work by other human beings as your own.
