Educators object to ChatGPT, an AI that 'writes' papers for students - Washington Times

Educators across the U.S. are sounding the alarm over ChatGPT, an upstart artificial intelligence that can write term papers for students based on keywords without clear signs of plagiarism. "I have a lot of experience of students cheating, and I have to say ChatGPT allows for an unprecedented level of dishonesty," said Joy Kutaka-Kennedy, a member of the American Educational Research Association and education professor at National University. "Do we really want professionals serving us who cheated their way into their credentials?" Trey Vasquez, a special education professor at the University of Central Florida, recently tested the next-generation "chatbot" with a group of other professors and students. They asked it to summarize an academic article, create a computer program, and write two 400-word essays on the use and limits of AI in education.
