🏛️ 1. Universities Shift From Ban to Integration

Leading universities are choosing to regulate rather than ban AI:

  • University of Sydney has implemented a two-lane approach: AI tools are allowed in take-home work if cited, but banned in final in-person assessments.
  • Trinity College Dublin allows AI-assisted essays as long as the student critically evaluates and acknowledges its use.

This aligns with the IB’s own view that generative AI should be used ethically—not hidden.

✅ 2. Academic Integrity Is Now AI-Inclusive

Universities expect students to:

  • Use AI responsibly and cite tools like ChatGPT or Jojo AI when they shape analysis or structure.
  • Understand that submitting AI-generated work without citation can still constitute academic dishonesty.
