New York Blocking ChatGPT Access At Schools, Hazard Claims For The World Of Education

JAKARTA - The New York City Education Department, United States (US), has reportedly banned students from wearing ChatGPT, namely a chatbot powered by artificial intelligence from OpenAI, because it is claimed to be dangerous to the world of education and prevent fraud.

"Due to concerns about the negative impact on student learning, concerns about the safety and accuracy of content, access to ChatGPT is limited to networks and devices of the New York City General School," said a spokeswoman for the New York City Education Department, USA,

ChatGPT, which was launched in November last year, can produce human-like text paragraphs. Millions of people have used it over the past month, helping it get smarter.

But in this case, the worry is that it will hinder student learning, where they can easily cheat during exams and submit essays that they don't write on their own.

"Meanwhile, the tool may be able to provide a quick and easy answer to questions, but does not build critical thinking skills and solve problems, which are important for academic success and a lifetime," said tela.

ChatGPT is part of a new generation of AI systems, can be used to communicate and produce text that can be read as requested as well as new images and videos, although not necessarily factual or logical.

Maybe the ban is quite difficult to implement. Because blocking chatbots through school internet networks and loan devices is quite easy, but it won't stop students from using them on their own devices with cellular networks or non-school Wi-Fi.

"We don't want ChatGPT to be used for misleading purposes in schools or anywhere else, so we have developed mitigation to help anyone identify the text generated by the system," OpenAI told The Associated Press in response to the New York City Education Department's move., USA.

Launching Engadget, Monday, January 9, not everyone in the education community opposes AI chatbots. A teacher at Brooklyn Tech, Adam happened to compare ChatGPT with the world's most famous search engine, Google.

"People said the same thing about Google 15 or 20 years ago when students were able to find answers online," Chalkbeat explained.

He argues bots can be allies to teachers, where they can use them in response to basic essays, which can be improved together by class.

Believe it, the key is to invite students to explore things that need to be known while switching from standard metrics.

"We have trained all generations of children to pursue rubrik points and not knowledge, and of course, if the important thing is points at the end of the semester, then ChatGPT is a threat," saidTEN.
