Can I use AI to generate references? 

Be aware that ChatGPT and other similar tools still invent some academic references. Using such fabricated information in your work is considered academic misconduct so you should always double check any AI generated references. They also make some mistakes with APA 7th style.

The University has guidance for students on the use of AI and the Library has produced guidance on citing and referencing generative AI.
