Curiosity is your
advantage
MSU is where human thinking leads and AI follows.
How we use AI at MSU.
Four working principles guide how MSU thinks about AI. You may have more principles. Use them, share them.
Human thinking leads.
AI is an amplifier. AI is not a substitute for learning or thinking. We use AI to extend the reach of human judgment and capabilities, never to replace.
Be transparent about how you use it.
If AI helped you do your work, say so. Disclosure builds trust. Discuss with your instructor, your students, your colleagues, and your boss — when, how, and if to use AI.
Protect what's protected.
Student records, research subjects, unpublished work, sensitive university data do not go into personal AI tools. We have approved tools for that.
Share what you learn.
When you find something that works, write it up and share it with your colleagues and in our MSU AI Community Team. We get better as a community.
Three paths to the work.
Whoever you are at Mississippi State, find resources, tools, events, and guidance.
