GenAI: responsible use in research

About this guide

This guide aligns with the Deakin Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) guidelines for research to support researchers in identifying responsible use of genAI throughout the research lifecycle. It provides practical suggestions and hypothetical case scenarios to contextualise the guidelines.

Key consideration

Always ensure that you take time to learn tools, and develop knowledge of their suitability and their limitations. Exercise judgement on risk for breaches of research integrity, confidentiality, data sensitivity, privacy and third party copyright.
