So let’s say, hypothetically, you are speaking to someone in a professional situation who recently earned their doctorate. They offhandedly mention that they “used AI to write their dissertation.” You raise your eyebrows, they backtrack a bit, and state they acknowledged it as a source. You don’t know if they actually cited their use of AI. Let’s say this is a situation where you are evaluating this person as a potential future coworker in an academic position. What would your reaction be?

For clarity, this is in the humanities.
