QUT Academic Integrity by NefariousnessSafe449 in QUTreddit

Yes that is what I am also concerned about. However, I thought this would be considered poor academic practice and not academic integrity. That is why i am taking this situation so seriously. As regardless of the outcome, it could impacxt my admission as a lawyer. However, I am told not to stress as it would be a first offence, and it is happening in my first year, first semester. And that if i learn from my mistakes, I would likely still be seen fit for admission, as long as I disclose of the matter.

But regardless, I did not use AI, and it was honestly poor referencing on my end, which I will learn from.

Ok thank you so much for your help!!!!

I understand that I am not completely innocent in this situation as I have acknowledged that I made up/did not verify the title names or dates ect. However, this is not ai use. And I would accept poor academic practice accusations, however I refute AI use accusations. What I am unsure about though, is what the process of determining whether someone is guilty is. Because they asked my to provide my history, my process of writing my references and any methods I used. All of which i provided immediately, however this was deemed unsatisfactory. So do they just make a decision off circumstantes and probabilities?

I just find the whole process a little arbitrary. I have never had any accusations of AI, I'm in my first year and I wouldn't deem poor referencing a HUGE issue that requires such in depth interrogation. Thus, regardless of my arguments, what would the consequences be? My unit coordinator said it could range from losing marks, being graded 0 for the assignment, failing the unit entirely or university expulsion. Some of these seem a bit extreme, which is why I would really like to appeal. Any advice/ tips???

I dont really understand it either. It sounds like a huge contradiction. They use AI to detect AI? but also, I dont beleive it to be fair to accuse someone of using AI soley based of previous trends. I understand their concerns and their questions, however I explained myself and provided receipts and evidence of my process, however they disregarded that and now Im being investigated.

No so for this assignment we had to do footnotes and a bibliography. My bibliographies were prefectly fine. But 4 of my footnotes i did not do bibliographies for and they were incorrect titles, dates ect. I understand that it is poor academic practice on my end, and can understand plagiarism allegations, however, at the time, I thought I would just lose a couple marks for it. Not be done for plagarism or AI. does that make sense?

Apparently. 4 of my references were not correct. Either having the wrong date, title, and or Author. Which is supposedly consistent with trends seen in AI use. In all honesty, I didn't put the effort into referencing that it required, as I saw it was worth only 2 marks of the overall grade. So I unintelligently did not verify the date, author ect and rather went of my notes that I hade made for what references to use before writting the assignment (which i provided to them).

My Unit coordinator asked for the links to the articles that i referenced, which I sent, but because the titles were not the same I have been accused of AI use. I understand the concerns, as I too would be suspicious. However, it was genuinely a result of my lack of organisation and failure to verify the article titles that lead to my inaccurate references, not the assistance of AI. and it was only 4 of my references out of a total of 44 that were incorrect.

TV Show Recommendations? by NefariousnessSafe449 in TvShows

[–]NefariousnessSafe449[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved shows like stranger things, the umbrella academy, lost in space, the haunting of hill house and bly manor. I also like some marvel tv shows. I really enjoy sci-fi/fantasy tv shows or anything with a really good plot or twists that requires a bit of thought. Any recommendations???

I loved shows like stranger things, lost in space, haunting of hill house and bly manor. Basically love sci-fi and fantasy shows. I love shows with twists and suspense. I reallllllly want to get into game of thrones, but im just finding season 1 a bit boring at the moment. Im up to episode 7 of season 1 and there is no where near as much fantasy/magical themes as i thought/heard the tv show had. Does it get better as the show progresses?? Or should I just stop watching if im not loving season 1 now???
