OPINION: The chatbot sensation will change daily life – including education and jobs. And it’s just getting started.
Not wanting to hasten the demise of columnists, I am resisting the temptation to ask ChatGPT to write this one. But I am sure the chatbot would come up with a wittily cogent response if I did request it to write about the risks and benefits to humans of the latest dramatic advances in artificial intelligence.
The threat of plagiarism now looks positively old-fashioned. The national regulator says a “deep rethink of approaches” is required, including the need to be able to verify that students received the appropriate knowledge and skills before graduating. “Equally important is the potential use of AI by researchers to write grant applications, analyse data or write scientific papers. Nor should we overlook the privacy and intellectual property issues that arise in uploading student assessment tasks to third-party platforms that promise to detect content generated by AI.”
But any concerns about trying to control or regulate the ethical or social risks of its widespread use are – as usual – being completely overtaken by technology’s headlong advance beyond the horizon of yesterday’s imagination.Within less than a week of its public launch at the end of November, ChatGPT had gained more than 1 million users. Growth since has been even more exponential.”. And, of course, major investment.
