“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.

    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.
