The University of Lagos (UNILAG) has announced plans to unveil a policy document on the ethical use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in academic activities.

The university’s Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Academics and Research, Bola Oboh, made this known during the opening of a three-day workshop on ethics in higher education held at the university.

According to Mrs Oboh, a professor, the policy aims to “enhance critical thinking rather than fostering plagiarism and academic indolence.”

The workshop was facilitated by a Fulbright Specialist Awardee and Deputy Ethics Officer at Texas A&M University, Central Texas, USA, Russell Porter.

It was organised by the Office of International Relations, Partnerships and Prospects (IRPP) of the university.
