Sovereignty and usages of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Academic Work

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly Large Language Models, are increasingly adopted within academic settings to accelerate research and enhance or evolve pedagogical practices. While initially serving as an assistant to lecturers-researchers, questions arise regarding their legitimacy and potential biases. This article aims to uncover the reality of AI integration through a simplified questionnaire. Based on our findings, we propose a locally implemented and sovereign approach to generative AI solutions to address concerns such as data research sovereignty.
