AI-generated content is any form of digital content — text, images, videos, or audio — created by artificial intelligence systems without direct human intervention.
What it means
“These AI systems use advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques to generate content that mimics human creativity and decision-making processes.”
The catalog adds: “While AI-generated content has the potential to improve efficiency and creativity in various fields, it also raises ethical concerns related to plagiarism, copyright infringement, bias, and misinformation, which need to be carefully addressed when using and sharing AI-generated materials.”
What the catalog says
InterCoast Colleges’ catalog states this under “HONOR SYSTEM POLICY (Academic Integrity)” (pp. 48–52).
“Misuse of AI is considered plagiarism and is subject to the institution’s Academic Integrity policy.”
Among the listed appropriate uses: “Be transparent; cite (attribute) AI text and images properly when you use them in your own work.”
