I am curious about the ethical/accepted ways of using AI in terms of essay writing.
Im currently writing an essay and have been using Claude to help. I did not ask it to write the essay obviously, but some of the prompts I have been asking explicitly. I then read the response and begin building my essay, using some of the phrasing verbatim, but structuring/reorganizing/rewording/paraphrasing how I see fit.
Is this going to immediately be flagged? Is it even going to be checked? I grasp the concepts (even better after reading the AI response), but am nervous this is going to be flagged as plagiarism or AI abuse (does that exist)?
