The summer is over, schools are back, and the data is in: ChatGPT is mainly a tool for cheating on homework.::ChatGPT traffic dropped when summer began and schools closed. Now students are back, and they’re using the AI tool again more.

    Fr. Just do the homework in school, proctored, if it matters so much to the teacher.

    Ultimately the kids will get a test, and it should include an essay section, which they obviously have to write on the spot. I don’t really think it matters how much homework they did or didn’t do or what tools they used to “cheat”, as long as they can perform come test day that’s what matters.

      do you think someone will be capable to write an essay if it is literally the first essay they ever write, since they were using AI all the previous times? This is like reading solved math equations and believing that in a test you’ll be able to solve them on the spot, without having tried to solve any by yourself before.

        No! And they’ll fail, retake the class, and learn from their mistakes. I see no problems.
