Universities face a challenge in addressing AI-generated content, particularly ChatGPT, in higher education. While some universities view detective tools as a reliable strategy to identify AI-generated information, others see them as unreliable and raise concerns about intellectual property rights and the relationship between students and educators. Resources and guidelines are available for faculty and students, but there is a need for more targeted and personalized support to help students engage deeply with course material and avoid over-reliance on AI assistance.
