The AI revolution already transforming education

WHEN a student started researching for a school project earlier this year, she was able to conult her new study pal: artificial intelligence.

After an hour of scouring Google for information, the student finally asked ChatGPT in which you input a question and get a generated answer to write a paragraph about her research. It replied with fascinating details about the subject that were new and she later confirmed, factually correct.

Some of the things it brought up I hadn’t found anywhere online. I was actually surprised about how it was able to give me information that wasn’t widely available and a different perspective.

Since ChatGPT, a powerful, freely available AI software capable of writing sophisticated responses to prompts, arrived on the scene last year, it has prompted intense speculation about the long-term repercussions on a host of industries and activities.

But nowhere has the impact been felt more immediately than in education. Overnight, rather than labor through traditional exercises designed to develop and assess learning, students can imply instruct a computer to compose essays, answer math questions or quickly perform complex coursework assignments and pass the results off as their own.
