Generate a clear, honest statement of how you used generative AI in a piece of work — an assignment, paper, or application. Transparency is the safest default. Tick what applies; copy the statement.
Read your rules first. This is a drafting aid, not permission. Always follow the specific AI policy for your unit, assessment, journal or institution — some prohibit AI use entirely, others require a set wording. When in doubt, ask the marker or editor.

Your statement
Disclosure statement
Why disclose? Honest, specific disclosure protects you — it shows integrity, demonstrates the judgement you applied over the tool, and meets the transparency most institutions now expect. Vague or absent disclosure is what gets flagged.
