University of Calgary AI project asks students, teachers about the use of ChatGPT - Calgary

The AI can write essays and poems and answer questions about many topics. "If I thought about using ChatGPT for creating an essay, the answer could be ok – I might use it, but I will also be using these other resources because my interest as a student is to create something that can be for the benefit of others," said Moya who is a research assistant with a new University of Calgary research project investigating the ethical use of AI in post-secondary learning and teaching. "I want to be creative and create opportunities for others." Known as ChatGPT and created by a company called OpenAI, the software is designed to generate human-like responses to a wide range of inputs by using algorithms. "It was interesting to see that this tool could provide some particular insights that could become the starting point of something," Moya said.
