This opinion piece reports the discussions of a group of seven EdD (Doctor of Education) students and their tutor (lead author), who together have co-authored this paper. The piece identifies our diverse attitudes, anxieties, aspirations or apprehensions regarding the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI). The discussion evolved to explore six main areas: academic literacy; ethical use of GenAI; the need for originality; the consistency of attitudes held by assessors and supervisors; the specificity of university guidance; and the viva as an assessment tool. The extent to which aspects of the discussion resonated with examples of published work was also considered.
