# Acknowleding AI Use

## Acknowledging the use of AI in an Appendix

If your teacher has allowed you to use AI tools when completing an assessment, they may also ask you to include a statement acknowledging that you have used AI, with further details on what tools you have used, including screenshots and prompts. Include this text in an appendix before your works cited list. For example:

> **Appendix**
>
> *I used* [*Elicit* ](https://elicit.org/)*to brainstorm research questions.*
>
> Your teacher may also ask you to document how you have used AI tools with details about prompts used and/or screenshots.

> **Appendix**
>
> *I used* [*ChatGPT* ](https://chat.openai.com/chat)*to brainstorm ideas about my project. I used the following prompt: “5 possible ways to explore language learning in virtual reality”. I have not presented any content generated by AI tools as my own work. Screenshot:*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://library.vsa.edu.hk/vsalibrary/research/citing-sources/citing-ai/acknowleding-ai-use.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
