Bengaluru’s RV University has issued a ban on ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence tool, inside the campus to prevent students from using it in academic activities such as exams, lab tests and assignments. The management of the university will also conduct surprise checks on students and ask them to redo the content on their own if faculty raises doubts on the originality of submission.
An official from RV University confirmed that the ban also applies to other AI tools such as GitHub Co-pilot and Black Box. “We have issued an advisory to all departments in the university and banned a few AI tools like ChatGPT as students might use them in exams or to complete their assignments. The ban is already implemented,” said an official to Hindustan Times.
