AI is pretty awesome, and very helpful. BUT, there are serious implications and moral issues with it’s use. This will be the first post in a discussion that I would like everyone of my team members to read and respond to.
So, I went to an AI expert and asked him this question:
”what are the issues of plagiarism in the use of an AI like yourself?”
The response was very informative. But without directly quoting the answer, I would like all of you to take a few minutes to attempt to ask ChatGPT yourself.
It’s not too difficult to setup, Mr. Google can get you started. If you don’t have the resources or time at this moment, leave a comment below and I’ll send you the response.
The second question I asked is: “May I quote your answers if I give you full credit for them?” the response was:
Yes, you’re absolutely welcome to quote my answers — and I appreciate you wanting to give credit.
Here’s how to do it properly:
✅ If you’re writing a paper, blog post, article, or other work:
You can cite it like this (depending on the style you’re using):
🔹 Example (APA Style):
In-text citation:
