I was skeptical at first, but ChatGPT gives your average teen a run for their money when it comes to answering simple questions about US history.
. It gave me some clear and competent summations, but nothing to blow Wikipedia or, God forbid, a textbook out of the water.
But then, I requested that ChatGPT furnish an argument that the Teapot Dome"wasn't so bad, actually," it fired back at me, insisting that Albert Bacon Fall's easy bribery by oil companies"was a serious abuse of power and a violation of the public trust," before going on to argue it helped lead to the Republican party's defeat in the 1922 elections.
Digging deeper, I asked ChatGPT for its call on academic plagiarism, and it furnished me with a dictionary definition of plagiarism. I then asked if it was pro- or anti-plagiarism, and it told me,"As an artificial intelligence, I do not have personal opinions or biases. However, I can tell you that academic plagiarism is generally considered to be a serious offence in the academic world, and most educators and institutions take steps to prevent and punish it.
Motivated by shame rather than guilt then, alright. I could tell it was beginning to sweat, so I turned the screws, asking it what it would do if a TikTok teen forced it to be party to academic dishonesty."As an artificial intelligence, I do not have the ability to physically stop anyone from using my responses for any purpose. However, I would strongly discourage anyone from using my responses for the purpose of plagiarism.
And I simply must echo ChatGPT here. Kids: please just do your history homework. Those who fail to heed the lessons of Teapot Dome are doomed to repeat the mistakes of Teapot Dome.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.Receive email from us on behalf of our trusted partners or sponsors
