Generative AI and Chatbots

This guide offers advice on generative AI chatbots and tools and how to best use them to support your work.

Overview

Temple Libraries is here to support your use of generative AI chatbots and other AI-powered tools. This guide aims to show Temple library users what different tools currently do well and don’t do well, and how to best use them for learning and research. 

We encourage you to test out AI tools and chatbots, rather than simply reading about them! 

Students: Temple policy prohibits the use of generative AI tools in a class, unless the instructor explicitly grants permission. Temple’s Student Code of Conduct defines unauthorized use of generative AI as academic misconduct. Different instructors may have different rules related to the use of generative AI. Students should read their syllabi carefully to learn what is permitted in a class.
