Tekoälyä voi käyttää apuna ideoiden keksimisessä kirjoitustehtäviin, mutta se ei saa korvata omaa ajattelua ja kirjoittamista. Jos käytät tekoälyä, kerro siitä avoimesti. Tekoälyn käytön salaaminen on vilppiä. Kun käytät tekoälyä, tutustu Metropolian tekoälyohjeisiin (https://opiskelija.oma.metropolia.fi/delegate/desktop_web_content_attachment/attachment/9923680) ja toimi niiden mukaan. Olet itse vastuussa ohjeiden noudattamisesta.
