“What are the positives and negatives of using ChatGPT (and other AI) in post-secondary?”
This is a question I need to answer for an essay competition thing, and while I do have ideas myself and from my professor when I asked for his opinions, I was hoping if anyone here had some insights to add.
Is it ethical that I ask for your aid? I don’t want to overstep. I would not use anyone’s name/usernames at all in this essay, at most I will cite sources on the matter.
While I think my current ideas about the pros and cons are good (more cons than pros in my opinion) but I want to know if I missed anything.
If needed, I will add what ideas I’ve come up with so far but for now I’ll leave that out.
Edit: I was tempted to post this in the “Ask Lemmygrad” community but I think thats a more educational community about communism specifically so I’ll stick to asking here.
Don’t forget about the privacy and copyright concerns. Scraping the internet for training data, copyrighted or not, and also logging every input for this purpose (and probably others).
A pretty significant con in my opinion.
Copyright is one of the cons I have written down but I never thought of the privacy issues with AI…
Most people don’t. Convenience is more important than privacy for most people, can’t blame you.
I’m just a paranoid tech geek. So this is usually the first and strongest concern for me.
Honestly, being in this forum has got me on the privacy paranoia train so I get it. Sometimes i forget how many aspects of life/the internet invade on privacy. Like now, I had no idea that AI like ChatGPT invaded privacy.
I think AIs are one of the most privacy invading things right after social media platforms.
