Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the development of algorithms and systems that can learn from data, recognise patterns, and make decisions or predictions based on those algorithms or systems.
Examples of AI applications in everyday life include chatbots, image or voice recognition software, autonomous vehicles, and recommendation systems (for films, music, or online shopping).
AI can offer both benefits and challenges to universities. On the one hand, it can offer ideas, different perspectives, whilst on the other hand, it can impact learning and produce misinformation. In Information Services, we have been working with colleagues across the University to help support its safe and ethical use.
This webpage is designed to give you an overview of our AI guidance as well as consider how it can be used across the University’s many functions.
If you have any generic questions around AI use, contact Information Services (is@aber.ac.uk). For students, if you have queries around acceptable AI use for your assignments, contact your tutor or module co-ordinator.
