SLU has no general guidelines for using AI tools in courses. Generally, you should always be transparent about the sources, including AI tools. Check the course and assignment instructions or ask your teacher if AI tools are allowed and if they are, how to report their use.
Remember that presenting a text or image as your own is cheating if you didn't create it, regardless of it being made by another person or an AI tool.
