Use of generative AI systems: the use of this type of AI systems in the preparation of case studies and other exercises should be carried out, among other varied tools for searching, accessing and processing information, in a responsible manner and with due subsequent review of the result by the student. In no case, it should replace the student's personal, creative activity and the fulfillment of academic objectives. In specific cases, the instructions for a given academic activity may nevertheless limit the use of AI systems. If so, this will be expressly indicated.
