The New Robot Overlords: AI-Generated text in the Classroom
In our latest Instructor-focused episode we discuss the space that AI-Generated text (ChatGPT) occupies in our classroom. Topics include positive uses for the tool, addressing concerns over misuse and abuse (e.g., using AI generated text to write an essay or "conduct research"), classifying misuse of generated text as plagiarism, and many other issues around the capability. While this episode may not necessarily answer questions you may have about ChatGPT and its ethical use in the classroom, we hope that you will find it to be informative. At the very least it may be calming to know that you aren't the only instructor unsure of how new, evolving technologies, may disrupt our classrooms.
