ChatGPT (and friends: Gemini, LLama, ...)

It is very likely that:

  • You will need to use ChatGPT a lot in your future career.
  • Using ChatGPT will increase your productivity.

  • Your productivity will depend on how good you become at using ChatGPT effectively and, in particular, at:

    • understanding its limitations;
    • identifying and correcting its inevitable errors.

However, you will always remain fully responsible for what you deliver.

If you deliver something correct more quickly and efficiently, fine. If you deliver something wrong, it will be your fault.

Having said that, I and my colleagues in Computer Engineering at UniTrieste have agreed to adopt the following policy in all our courses:

In any type of content produced by the student for admission to or participation in an exam (projects, reports, exercises, tests), the use of Large Language Model tools (such as ChatGPT and the like) must be explicitly declared. This requirement must be met even in the case of partial use.

Regardless of the method of assessment, the teacher reserves the right to further investigate the student's actual contribution with an oral exam for any type of content produced.
