Q. How do I cite ChatGPT and other generative AI?

Before using ChatGPT or similar tools in academic assignments, confirm with your instructor. Policies vary—some may prohibit use, while others allow limited applications.

If allowed, follow these guidelines for citing generative AI:

• How do I cite generative AI in MLA style? - MLA Style Center

• How to cite ChatGPT - APA Style

• Citing AI generated content - Chicago Manual of Style

Your instructor may also require an appendix with ChatGPT prompts or a full transcript of your interaction.

For citing other formats (e.g., images, code, videos), refer to How to Cite AI Tools: A Guide for Students.
