Artificial Intelligence (AI) Guiding Principles

UNC Pembroke's Artificial Intelligence (AI) Guiding Principles were developed to help shape and guide our approach to AI use, development, and integration. These principles reflect our commitment to responsible and ethical AI practices that prioritize transparency, equity, and positive societal impact.

As AI continues to play an increasingly significant role in research, teaching, and administrative functions, it is essential that we align our practices with core values that support our mission and the well-being of our community. The guiding principles were developed to mirror similar AI guidelines with sister intuitions in the UNC System.  The goal is to ensure that we approach this transformative technology thoughtfully and responsibly.

The AI Guiding Principles are as follows:

  • Avoid inputting any sensitive data, including certain classifications of university data and other data classified or regulated by state and federal requirements, into publicly-available generative AI tools.  
     
  • As a user of AI tools, you are accountable for any content you produce or publish that includes AI-generated material.
     
  • AI-generated content may be inaccurate, misleading, entirely fabricated (referred to as "hallucinations"), or even contain copyrighted material. Always review your AI-generated content before sharing it.

These principles will serve as the foundation for future AI initiatives, policies, and projects. As we continue to explore the potential of AI in education, research, and beyond, we encourage all members of our community to engage with these guiding principles and contribute to their ongoing development and application.
