Chat GPT is an AI service that can answer questions. Chat GPT can create original answers in a chat format. They are realistic and made using computer algorithms. Users have to read carefully to be sure that the responses are correct. Chat GPT can write essays, notes, and answer questions. 

There are some concerns with Chat GPT. I worry that people will not check the accuracy of the responses. I worry that people will not use the resources that we already have, they will just jump to Chat GPT because it is “easier”. As an educator, I fear that students will use this to complete assignments rather than what they were taught. Like every new thing, we need to learn more about it; how the answers are formulated, how they can be checked, the tools, and appropriate uses.
