The ethical implications of generative Artificial Intelligence on students, academic staff and researchers in Higher Education.

This chapter discusses the ethical implications of Generative Artificial Intelligence on students, academic staff and researchers. Despite the attractive allure of generative AI there remains an undercurrent of ethical issues. If not addressed, these threaten to undermine the use and credibility of the eventual output, the person using the material and any particular purpose to which the material has been used. Whilst problems have been identified through the use of these tools, these have not specifically been viewed through the lens of three key groups within Higher Education - Academic Staff, Students and Researchers. The identification of these issues will provide a starting point for many institutions who are developing guidance and policies in their own contexts.
