George Brown Polytechnic is located on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and other Indigenous peoples who have lived here over time. We are grateful to share this land as treaty people who learn, work and live in the community with each other.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming a common tool for writing, from brainstorming ideas to drafting an assignment. It is very important to remember to cite any sources you use in your work, including AI-generated content.
The Library is here to help!
Our Citing Sources research guide has videos explaining citation basics and why to cite, as well as example citations for all kinds of sources in APA, MLA, Chicago, and Vancouver Style, all in one place.
This is where you can find guidance and examples on how to cite Generative AI in your work using APA and MLA:
Please remember to always ask your instructor or consult your course outline to confirm:
- Whether AI tools are allowed
- To what extent they may be used
- How your use of AI should be documented or cited
Instructors may have additional or alternative requirements, so review assignment instructions carefully.
At any point in your research process, visit our Research Support webpage to discover ways the Library can help you. Remember, you can drop-by a reference desk, reach out to your librarian, and use the chat & text service askON for research help.
Additionally, the Tutoring and Learning Centre is available to help you with core skills for support in any course you’re taking at George Brown, including writing and citations.
Happy citing!
