DALL·E image prompt – a photo of a Russell Group university.

We asked all of the UK’s Russell Group universities the following three questions:

  • How many individual misconduct warnings have been issued to students, between November 2022 and March 2023, because of usage of generative AI (like Chat GPT for example) at your university?
  • Have any students been expelled from your university, between November 2022 and March 2023, for using generative AI (like Chat GPT for example)?
  • Is your university currently using AI-detection software?

These were their answers:
