# AI Tools for IB Students: What's Allowed in 2025 (And What's Not)
AI in the IB: 2025 Brings New Rules — and New Possibilities
AI is changing how students study — but is it allowed in the IB?
Yes —but with strict boundaries.
In 2025, the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) updated its AI policy to reflect the growing use of tools like ChatGPT and StudyIB. If you're using AI in your IA, EE, TOK — or even to prepare for exams — you need to know what's okay, what's not, and what could risk academic misconduct.
✅What the IBO Allows in 2025
According to the IBO's updated AI guidelines:
- Youcanuse AI to support learning
That includes asking questions, generating explanations, and testing understanding.
- Youcanuse AI to draft ideas and plan structure
Tools like
StudyIB can help brainstorm IA topics or outline your EE — as long as the final work is yours.
- Youmustcite AI-generated content
If AI helps generate a phrase, insight, or example, it must be acknowledged like any other source.
❌What You Can't Do
The IBO is crystal clear about misuse:
- 🚫 Youcan't submit AI-written essays
Submitting unedited AI content =
academic misconduct.
- 🚫 Youcan't fake analysis or personal engagement
The IB values your thinking, not ChatGPT's.
- 🚫 Youcan't skip citations just because it's AI
If it informed your work, it must be cited.
