Definition
Used open-source AI software to generate an initial report draft and preliminary engineering design documents without prior experience with the tool, applied a professional seal to the output, and did not disclose AI use to the client. The AI-generated design documents contained misaligned dimensions and omitted key safety features required by local regulations.

Text references
Client W noticed several issues with the AI-generated design documents, including misaligned dimensions and an omission of key safety features required by local regulations
Engineer A did not cite their use of AI-software or its large language models, and submitted the draft report to Client W for review, including language to clearly identify that the supplied report was a draft, but applied their seal consistent with state law
Engineer A opted to use open-sourced artificial intelligence (AI) software to create an initial draft of the necessary report and to use AI-assisted drafting tools to generate preliminary design documents
