For homework assignments, discussions with others are permitted, where the goal is to aid your understanding. However, the submitted work/code should be entirely your own, completed in accordance with the University’s academic regulations.
For code submissions, please submit a README file where you should name the individuals that you received help from or provided help to. Also briefly mention the nature of the help you received or provided.

You are allowed to use an LLM in a class project, where it performs some specific task, but does not generate the entire solution. If you plan to use an LLM, please make sure to discuss your project outline with us in advance, and your final project report should include all details.
If you have any questions or concerns, please discuss these policies with the instructor.
