When evaluating content generated from generative AI, it is crucial to take the extra step and assess the content to ensure that you're not using incorrect information. Failure to do so could result in a failing grade. The SIFT method, created by digital literacy expert Mike Caulfield, is an evaluation strategy designed to help assess the credibility and reliability of online content. Using this method, you can determine if the information generated by generative AI is factual.
