Scope: \textit{The existing record below covers the earlier Linux Commands formatting work; the separate record for Questions 31--40 documents Vincent Penalosa's AI use.};
Date: \textit{September 2026};
Tool and model: \textit{OpenAI Codex};
Task: \textit{Format documented Linux command results into LaTeX for inclusion in the Overleaf report};
Inputs: \textit{After completing the assigned Linux command problems, the terminal outputs and brief result descriptions were documented in a Google Document. The documented material for the assigned sections was then provided to Codex with a request to format the content in LaTeX consistent with the existing assignment template.};
Output used: \textit{Codex generated LaTeX formatting for the Linux Commands chapter, including section and subsection structure and figure placement for terminal screenshots.};
Human review and corrections: \textit{The generated LaTeX was reviewed before being added to Overleaf. The terminal commands, screenshots, and outputs were produced independently in the Linux environment and were not generated by AI. Formatting, wording, image references, and section organization were checked and adjusted as needed to match the assignment requirements and group document structure.};
Unresolved assumptions: \textit{None}.
\section{Questions 1--20: Environment Setup, Interpretation, and Verification Assistance}
Date: \textit{September 16, 2026};
Tool and model: \textit{OpenAI ChatGPT};
Task: \textit{Assist with setting up the Linux environment, explain the intent of Questions 1--20, and provide a secondary verification reference for independently completed Linux commands};
Inputs: \textit{Jacob Radzieta began without a Linux environment installed on the Windows computer. ChatGPT was used to provide step-by-step setup guidance, including installation of Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), installation and initialization of Ubuntu, creation of the Unix user account, navigation into the Linux home directory, and preparation of the assignment working directory and required test files. The Linux Command Proficiency problem set for Questions 1--20 was also provided so that each question could be explained in plain language and the expected type of command or result could be clarified.};
Output used: \textit{ChatGPT provided setup instructions for the Linux environment and explanations of what each assigned question was asking. It also provided example commands and expected forms of output that were used as a reference while completing the work. After independently working through each question in the Linux terminal, Jacob compared his own commands and results against the guidance as a safety check to confirm that the approach and interpretation were reasonable. ChatGPT was also used afterward to format the completed Questions 1--20 into LaTeX consistent with the existing Linux Commands chapter.};
Human review and corrections: \textit{All terminal commands were entered and executed by Jacob in the Linux environment, and all screenshots and command outputs used as evidence were produced from those executions. ChatGPT did not execute the assignment commands or generate the terminal evidence. The AI guidance was treated as a secondary reference rather than as a substitute for completing the work. Jacob reviewed his own commands and outputs, compared them with the provided explanations, and used the comparison to identify potential mistakes or misunderstandings before documenting the final results. The generated LaTeX wording and image references were reviewed before being added to Overleaf.};
Unresolved assumptions: \textit{None}.
\section{Questions 31--40: Answer Assistance and LaTeX Formatting}
Follow-up formatting request: \textit{Vincent supplied the original question titles, and Codex replaced the Question 31--40 subsection titles with that wording and added the Debian/Ubuntu qualifier to section I. Question 38's title preserves the supplied text ``prints: : .''; the accompanying explanation describes the filename and line count shown in the screenshot.};
Date: \textit{September 16, 2026};
Tools and models: \textit{Anthropic Claude (model not specified) and OpenAI Codex};
Task: \textit{Generate answers for Questions 32--40 and format Questions 31--40 in the Linux Commands chapter to match Questions 21--30};
Inputs: \textit{Vincent Penalosa reported completing Question 31 independently and using Claude to generate answers for Questions 32--40. Codex received the terminal screenshots for Questions 31--40 and the existing LaTeX chapter, with instructions to place Questions 31--34 in section H, Questions 35--37 in section I, and Questions 38--40 in section J.};
Output used: \textit{Claude-assisted answers for Questions 32--40, as reported by Vincent. Codex added question headings, task descriptions, screenshot figures, and result explanations based on the supplied screenshots, and updated the AI usage record. Question 31's answer was completed independently; Codex assisted with its report wording and formatting.};
Human review and corrections: \textit{Review of the newly formatted sections in Overleaf remains pending. Codex inspected the supplied screenshots but did not execute the Linux commands.};
Unresolved assumptions: \textit{The exact Claude model and prompt were not supplied. A local LaTeX compiler was unavailable, so PDF compilation and final layout verification remain to be completed in Overleaf.}.
Task: \textit{Assist with organizing and formatting the Stevens SmartPark Project Proposal chapter and troubleshoot a LaTeX compilation error};
Inputs: \textit{Nica Saoi provided the Project Proposal assignment requirements, the Stevens SmartPark project description, and the current Overleaf project. ChatGPT was asked to help organize the chapter, and format the simplified application design and deployment process using minted.};
Output used: \textit{ChatGPT helped format the Project Proposal chapter, including the proposed tools, sample tasks, and simplified application architecture. It also formatted the application design and deployment flow as text diagrams using minted.};
Human review and corrections: \textit{Nica Saoi reviewed and edited the generated material before adding it to Overleaf. During compilation, a tabularx table produced a LaTeX error because several rows ended with a single backslash instead of the required double backslash. ChatGPT helped identify the table formatting problem and provided the corrected row endings.};
Unresolved assumptions: \textit{The proposed tools and project design may change as Stevens SmartPark is implemented.};
