Algoma University, Sault College, Huron-Superior school board educators offer their opinions on ChatGPT
ChatGPT - a chatbot developed by OpenAI, a U.S. artificial intelligence research laboratory - is rapidly becoming one of the most talked about inventions in years.
“At the moment it still has limitations. It cannot complete all assignments for secondary and post-secondary students but it can write short essays on many topics, answer questions and can often correctly answer multiple choice questions,” Murray said.In just a few months, ChatGPT has had over 100 million users.
Grammarly is an electronic typing assistant that checks spelling, grammar, punctuation and offers tips on replacements for errors but Murray described that as “less invasive.” “How do we keep the software from damaging learning and causing learning loss? I don’t have a good answer to this question yet but I do know that it’s not going away. Microsoft has invested billions of dollars in ChatGPT-3 and has integrated ChatGPT-3 into its Bing search engine.”
“Those are valid concerns,” MacDonald said when asked about the possibility of some students passing off the work of ChatGPT as their own. “From the educational perspective we will need to adapt. Every academic institution in the world is having these same discussions,” MacDonald said. “My hope is that this will encourage us to revise old ways of teaching that excluded some people,” Murray said.
