Full Session Description (as long as you would like):
Many users of AI, especially first-time users, have grave misunderstandings regarding the ethical boundaries of generative AI use. In terms of intellectual property and content generation, the three Cs to remember are Copyright, accurate and thorough Citation, and Circumspection regarding privacy and confidentiality policies and quality checking generated content. This discussion will feature several examples of each of these ideas and discuss these ethical principles and how they relate to education.
Notable examples, such as Zarya of the Dawn, Theatre D'opera Spatial, and the Sony World Photography Awards, will be discussed and used as touchstones for broader discussion. In a similar way, a privacy harms model and citation examples will be used to facilitate discussions.
Users in all fields will need to consider various ethical principles no matter what type of content they are creating or analyzing with generative AI tools.

Takeaway 1: -- Models and ideas for creating citation norms for institutional and personal use.
Takeaway 2: -- Discuss the necessary components of confidentiality and quality checking materials.
Takeaway 3: -- Discuss the implications of copyright law and intellectual property concepts.
