ChatGPT raises concerns about student cheating

OpenAI’s new general-purpose chatbot prototype, ChatGPT, has demonstrated amazing problem-solving and question-answering abilities (with not necessarily correct answers) to help you write papers, raising concerns that students are using ChatGPT to cheat. Academics, higher education consultants and cognitive scientists recommend that universities develop new assessment models to address the threat AI poses to academic integrity. Representatives from around 130 universities attended a workshop organized by UK charity JISC this week. Annie Chechitelli, an executive at anti-plagiarism software developer Turnitin, said it is developing tools to help assess whether there are AI-assisted traces in assignments. She also warned that it is not beneficial to start an arms race with generative AI, and teachers should encourage students to develop critical thinking. Additionally, studies have shown that overreliance on such online tools may affect creativity.
