Further information for students
Tällä opintojaksolla tekoälyä saa käyttää opiskelun tukena tietojen etsimiseen, ymmärtämisen syventämiseen ja omien oppimistehtävien suunnitteluun. Tekoälyä ei kuitenkaan saa käyttää suoraan oppimistehtävien, tenttien tai muiden arvioitavien suoritusten tekemiseen ilman opettajan lupaa. Tekoälyn käyttö on aina ilmoitettava, ja opiskelijan on pystyttävä osoittamaan ymmärtävänsä tuotetun sisällön.
