How can I approach a student if I suspect that they have used AI in ways that aren’t allowed (but I don’t have proof)?

I am worried about the environmental impact of using AI. How bad is it really?

TextQ&A

I have implemented an exercise in my course where students generate AI responses to a question and then critique it, with the goal of showing them that they cannot trust AI outputs. But when I gave that task two weeks ago, two students refused to do it, quoting environmental concerns. I myself am also worried about the environmental impact of AI, too, but that is just my gut feeling and not based on any data. Can you help?
