One day last month, Antony Aumann, a college professor(教授) in the United States, was grading papers(给论文评分) for his course. While he was reading the" best paper in the class" , a red" warning" flag suddenly went up. Later, the student admitted(承认) using ChatGPT, a chatbot(聊天机器人) to write his paper.
Since Open AI released(发布) Chat GPT last November, the chat bot has enjoyed huge welcome. Students are using it to do their homework for them. All over the world, professors like Aumann are redesigning(重新设计) their courses because of this. Some have decided to include more oral exams and handwritten papers. Gone are tasks like" write five pages about this or that" . Professors are instead designing questions that they hope will be too clever for chat bots. Some are asking students to write about their own lives.
Many schools, however, don't want to ban(禁止) the use of ChatGPT. They are, instead, treating it the way they treat calculators(计算器). Because they don't believe a ban would be useful. Moreover, chatbots are unlikely to be the last technological development. Rather than stay away from them, both students and teachers should learn to make proper use of them.
Some students have started learning how to work with AI tools together. Lizzie Shackney is a student at the University of Pennsylvania. She uses ChatGPT to quickly produce a large number of possibly useful ideas for her papers. She then thinks over these ideas and decides what to include in her papers and what not to include. The student always writes her papers herself. " With AI tools, I won't have to spin my wheels, " she said. " But I am also not going to depend on them to do everything for me. "
