DISCLOSURE BUILDER
Build the AI-Use Disclosure that goes on every graded deliverable. The four fields are the same all term. Nothing you type here leaves your device.
What you type stays on this device. Drafts save only in this browser’s localStorage, never on the server. On a shared device, use Clear when finished. Private browsing or clearing browser data may remove your draft.
You wrote a one-page memo recommending whether a café should add delivery. You used an AI tool along the way.
Used: ChatGPT. Produced: It helped with the memo. Changed: I edited it. Decided independently: Everything else.
Each field is true and tells the reader nothing. A cross-check couldn't confirm or contradict any of it, and the last field, the one that shows judgment, is boilerplate.
You wrote a one-page memo recommending whether a café should add delivery. You used an AI tool along the way.
Used: An AI chat tool, twice: to list costs a café might face when adding delivery, and to tighten my final paragraph. Produced: A list of nine cost categories, and a shorter version of my conclusion. Changed: I kept five of the nine costs and dropped four that didn't apply to a single small café (fleet insurance, for example). I rejected its shorter conclusion because it dropped my condition about weekend demand. Decided independently: The recommendation itself (a three-month trial on weekends only) and the condition that ends the trial if delivery orders stay under 15 a day.
Specific enough to check against the memo. The independent decision is a judgment the tool didn't make, and it says what happens if the judgment is wrong.
You wrote a one-page memo recommending whether a café should add delivery. You used an AI tool along the way.
Used: None. I wrote and checked the memo myself, and I didn't accept any AI rewrite, autocomplete or summary suggestions from my word processor, email app or search engine. Produced: Nothing. Changed: Not applicable. Decided independently: All of it, including the weekend-only trial and the 15-orders-a-day condition for ending it.
"None" is a complete disclosure when it's true, and the course asks for it on AI-Prohibited work. The thing to check before writing it: AI is built into everyday tools (grammar suggestions, autocomplete, search summaries). That's the Unit 1 lesson that AI isn't only chatbots, so "none" means none of those either.
Switching this on replaces your fields with the no-AI example. You can still edit every field.
Name the tool and the step: brainstorming, outline, first draft, checking, formatting.
Describe what it actually gave you, not "it helped."
Give at least one specific change and your reason.
Name a decision the model couldn't have made for you.
