No, you may not use large language models (LLMs) to complete Universal AI coursework. LLMs encompass a range of tools, including but not limited to ChatGPT, Google Bard, and Claude AI.
MIT places significant importance on academic integrity. All work that you submit must be a genuine reflection of your own efforts and original work. Using LLMs or other tools to complete coursework is considered cheating, which—along with other dishonest practices like plagiarism, sharing answers, and improper collaboration on assignments—is strictly prohibited.
Instead, we encourage learners to make use of AskTIM, MIT Learn's AI assistant. AskTIM is specifically designed to provide learners with support throughout the learning journey without compromising academic integrity.
AskTIM can explain lecture content, help you understand key ideas, and guide you through Universal AI coursework. It empowers learners to take ownership of their learning without doing the work for you.
