Chat GPT is a Chat bot that uses human- like conversation to generate answers to questions and prompts. This AI Bot can do a huge number of tasks. These range from answering simple questions, creating essay or songs to generating shopping lists & rubrics. It can even create images. The draw is that it can answer questions in a simple way that is easily accessible and understandable.
As an educator, the growing concern is being able to decipher between human generated work and AI creation. There is a huge fear that students can use and misuse this new technology (ethically & plagiarism). Many individuals also cannot distinguish between fact and fiction. Over the past week the AI generated photo of the Pope emerged on the internet. As an experiment, I showed this to my one class. Half of the students were certain this was legit; whereas the others voiced their doubts. I agree with our presenters that we need to continue to teach digital literacy and citizenship to our students. Companies can assist us with these tasks by fact checking or watermarking images that are AI generated. We should also find ways to utilize Chat GPT to help our students and teaching as oppose to fearing the future of technology.
