Acknowledging Generative Artificial Intelligence or AI
To acknowledge the use of AI you are required to make a declaration of use in your bibliography by following these two steps:
1. Firstly, include a source citation in your Bibliography in APA 7th Edition format:
Author/Owner of AI model. (Year). Name of AI model (Version) [Type or description of AI model]. URL
For example,
OpenAI. (2023). ChatGPT (Aug 24 version) [Large language model].https://chat.openai.com/chat
2. Secondly, include a declaration of use of AI after your Bibliography.

Please note the numbers are shown in the following examples for the purpose of showing the declarative format only; they would not appear in the declaration.
Example 1
I acknowledge the use of [1] ChatGPT (https://chat.openai.com/) to [2] generate materials for background research and self-study in the drafting of this assessment. I entered the following prompts on 4 January 2023:
[3] Write a 50-word summary of the work of Kenneth Slessor. Write it in academic style. Add references and quotations from Kenneth Slessor. [4] The output from the generative artificial intelligence was adapted and modified for the final response.
Example 2
I acknowledge the use of [1] ChatGPT (https://chat.openai.com/) [2] to refine the academic language and accuracy of my own work. On 10 January 2023 I submitted my entire essay (link to google document here) with the instruction to [3] “Improve the academic tone and accuracy of language, including grammatical structures, punctuation and vocabulary”. [4] The output was then modified further to better represent my own tone and style of writing.
