Generative AI can be a helpful writing tool, but its output is not always accurate or reliable. This session introduces common issues in AI-generated writing, including

• factual errors;
• vague or misleading information; and
• the effects of drift, hallucination, and limited context.

Led by staff from the HASC Writing Center, the webinar offers practical strategies for checking AI-generated content, verifying information, and making thoughtful decisions about when and how to use AI tools in academic writing. Students will leave with a clearer understanding of how to engage with AI more critically and responsibly in their coursework.
