wasting bandwidth since 1999
In the cover story from last weekend’s Sunday Morning program, David Pogue presented a very good and entertaining overview of ChatGPT.
Including, of course, some of the issues around how AI tools like this will impact the teaching of writing in school.
Just for giggles, I told ChatGPT to generated a blog post for me. The specific assignment was to “write an essay for a general reader about how charter schools damage public schools”. Here’s what it spit out.
A few more bits of information and random thoughts about ChatGPT, the newest head to pop up in our ongoing game of technology-threats-to-education Whack-a-Mole.
Lots of chatter over the past couple of months about the latest technology poised to disrupt the education system, ChatGPT. Maybe.
What is ChatGPT? Well, if this software is so smart, let it explain.
From a business magazine called Fast Company comes a good opinion piece discussing “Why schools need to abandon facial recognition, not double down on it”.
It’s written by two fellows from the NAACP Legal Defense Fund who link to a growing body of research indicating that these systems use software that is heavily biased and frequently inaccurate. Which is pretty typical in the AI business these days.
