UF's central message favors responsible and transparent use, but it does not grant blanket permission. The College of Nursing, for example, requires disclosure in all academic work and restricts AI where faculty prohibit it.

3. When AI Is Commonly Allowed

The source data does not specify concrete allowed uses beyond course- or instructor-level permission.

Check primary source.

Only if your instructor allows it for the specific assignment.

4. When AI Is Commonly Restricted

Any use that an instructor, school, or program explicitly prohibits.

Always check your course syllabus for specific restrictions.

5. Disclosure Requirements

Yes when AI assists coursework.

Disclosure is required when AI use is permitted. Follow the instructor or course policy for the exact form of acknowledgment.

Where AI use is permitted, disclosure usually takes one of these forms:

A statement or acknowledgement in your submission
A citation of the AI tool, in the format your course requires
A short methods note describing how AI was used

Follow the exact format your instructor or department requires.
