Chat GPT is an AI chatting service developed by OpenAI. Through Chat GPT, people can engage in human conversations and information seeking. Chat GPT can generate original content, essays, lessons plans,,,virtually anything the person using it asks for. The service using algorithms to create its responses . There are some limitations as sometimes it may not know the answer or give incorrect information. 
Concerns as an educator: I go back and forth between Chat GPT and its place in education. At first I really believed it to be something that hinder students leanring and give them an “easy way out”. Now, seeing hoe some teachers have incorporated it into their classroom my beliefs have somewhat changed. I think it has great potential to set students up for success and enhance what they already know. Now with that being said, I still think using it education needs to be heavily monitored to make sure its enhancing and not replacing students learning. Not only do I think students need to be educated on its uses and HOW to use it, I think teachers and staff do too. I look forward to learning a lot more about AI and its uses. My hope is that it can be a tool for all of us and not the enemy
