Artificial Intelligence, specifically Generative AI (Gen AI), is a technology tool that can be trained to think and learn like humans. It has the potential to augment teaching and learning by streamlining administrative tasks, calculating data, running simulations, and refining project development as a thought partner. The capabilities of these technologies also necessitate careful guidance to ensure responsible and equitable usage. Fort Bend ISD (FBISD) recognizes the importance of establishing clear guidelines and best practices around Gen AI integration in the educational setting. 

The primary goal of the guidelines is to inform students, staff, and stakeholders of the responsible and ethical use of Gen AI and its use with other technology tools. Although Gen AI may be able to create, revise, or complete tasks quickly, the amplification of learning is the primary outcome.

The FBISD AI Handbook will continue to evolve as Gen AI technologies and capabilities change.
