RevisionDojoWhy Safety Matters When Using AI
The IB places a strong emphasis on academic integrity, and handing over your actual assignments to third-party AI tools can risk unintentional breaches. Your ideas, structure, and insights must stay your own, and using AI without caution—especially privacy safeguards—can cause issues like plagiarism or data exposure.
1. Understand What You're Sharing
Before uploading or inputting any assignment into an AI tool, ask yourself:
- Who can access your information?
Some tools store submissions in shared databases.
- Is your personal data protected?
Avoid services without strong privacy policies or encryption.
At RevisionDojo, your drafts stay private—Jojo AI is built for ethical, secure assistance, not public sharing.
2. Share Only Outline Snippets, Not Full Work
If you want feedback on structure or ideas, share a simplified outline or paragraph summary, without copying your actual essay or internal assessment:
- Use the Practical Guide to Using AI Tools for IB TOK Essays to understand how to request structural help ethically.
- Keep your full draft offline to preserve originality and prevent accidental leaks.
3. Protect Your Identity and Drafts
Even AI tools that claim anonymity can store data. Take precautions like:
- Remove your name or school details
- Avoid submitting exclusive research or proprietary info
- Ensure you're using Jojo AI through RevisionDojo, which operates under strict data-protection rules.
4. Get Feedback, Not Content
The safest way to use AI is as a feedback assistant, not a content generator:
- Feed Jojo AI your outline and ask for structural improvement
- Request quiz-style questions or critical thinking prompts to refine your argument
Learn more about this approach in our 10-Step TOK Essay Guide.
5. Stay Within IB Academic Integrity Guidelines
Per IB policy, you must:
- Acknowledge all external support
- Retain your original work and brainstorming drafts
- Keep responsibility for your ideas and citations

Frequently Asked Questions

Use Jojo AI for outline support, quiz generation, and anonymous feedback—all within a secure system that respects IB standards and your privacy.
Conclusion
Sharing raw IB assignments with online AI tools can be risky—and often unnecessary. Instead, use AI for structure, brainstorming, or feedback, while retaining control and protecting your privacy.
