Can you imagine an AI chatbot (聊天机器) competing with you in an examination? Do you think you could get higher scores than it? A new AI chatbot called ChatGPT recently passed a law school exam! Sounds crazy? The use of ChatGPT has raised heated discussions in the education world.
ChatGPT was developed by US company Open AI. It is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. According to a US survey of more than 1000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with homework. Some schools in the US do not allow students to use it. For example, New York City public schools don't allow students and teachers to use ChatGPT on the district's networks (地区网络) and devices (设备).
The measure (措施) comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread incorrect information.
"It does not develop thinking ability and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for studying and lifelong success, " said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education. Except for bans (禁令), teachers are making changes to their classes to prevent the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones.
However, not all educators say "no" to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are making rules on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far. Some people said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. "We have to know that AI is a tool people will use, " What we need to do is "change our learning, teaching and examinations". In that way, we can "have integrity (诚信) while recognizing the use of the tool".
