Artificial Intelligence tools
Please check with your teacher whether you can use Artificial Intelligence tools in your work. Students who are using generative artificial intelligence tools need to clearly acknowledge how you used AI in your reference list or bibliography and by citing your work with "AI generated".
For more information, see the Library FAQs on artificial intelligence and the university's Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) webpage.
Australian Harvard style is based on the Australian Government Style Manual (AGSM). There are currently no specific guidelines for citing generative AI by the AGSM. The library recommends following the similar APA 7th reference 'Author/Date' style for generative AI content for personal communication or a nonrecoverable source - information which is not retrievable.

See our library FAQ How do I cite and reference non-textual outputs generated by AI tools? for other generative outputs.
