Module summary

What is artificial intelligence?

• Artificial Intelligence is best thought about as computers behaving intelligently to solve a problem or complete tasks.
• There are three different types of AI. Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI), Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI).
• Society is currently using ANI in everyday life through technology such as personal assistants on phones.

AI and the University of Queensland

• It is important to acknowledge your use of generative AI tools and to check that you are permitted to use them.
• Staff and students have access to AI tools, including Microsoft Pilot and Adobe Express.
• UQ is heavily involved in AI research and experimentation.

Legal, ethical and social issues with AI

• There are questions about the lawfulness of the data used to train AI models and the copyright status of the AI tools’ outputs.
• Be careful not to upload licensed or copyright-protected materials into AI tools.
• AI tools replicate systemic biases relating to race, gender and sexuality that exist in the underlying training data.
• AI has the potential to disrupt industries and employment, and radically change the way that we work.
• LLMs have significant environmental impacts, including needing huge amounts of energy and water to run the tools and physical infrastructure.

AI applications and task examples

• Examples of tasks generative AI tools can help you with.

How to prompt an AI tool

• Prompts are the input instructions for AI tools to perform tasks. They can include text, data (such as tables) or images.
• The more specific your prompt details are, the more relevant your output will be.

 Key AI tools and training

• Examples of AI tools for text, image, and video or audio generation.
• There are many new AI tools available to researchers and students that focus on academic sources.
• You can access training at UQ or via many online platforms.

 Evaluating AI-generated content

• AI tools have limitations and may not have access to all of the information.
• The information generated by AI tools should be checked with credible sources.

 Citing and acknowledging your use

• You should acknowledge that you have used AI tools for any assessment. One recommended way of acknowledging your use of AI tools is by using an assignment coversheet. Sometimes you may need to provide a citation or reference.
• The Library includes detailed guidance in our Generative AI tools for assignments guide.

 Publishing with AI

• UQ’s Responsible Research Management Framework Policy provides guidance on conducting responsible research at UQ.
• Using AI tools may impact the intellectual property ownership of your work.
• Check relevant grant guidelines and editorial policies of publishers before using AI tools in published works.
