You know unless we teach more critical thinking, AI is going to destroy us as a civilization in a few generations.
I genuinely had students believe that what ChatGPT was feeding them was fact and try to source it in a paper. I stamped out that notion as quick as I could.
LOL. ChatGPT has become the newer version of wikipedia, only it won't provide references.
Only studies have shown Wikipedia is overall about as truthful and accurate as as regular encyclopedia. ChtGPT will straight up make shit up but sound so authoritative about it people believe it.
It used to provide references but it made them up so they had to tweak it to stop doing that.
Man so it really learned from us, that's great. Has me laughing again considering that.
