Furman's Hick comments on the use of ChatGPT for assignments ...
Two years into the arrival of ChatGPT and other AI tools, Business Insider (via Yahoo! Tech) looked at the problems higher education is facing with the use of AI text generators for assignments. Beatrice Nolan of BI spoke to Furman University’s Darren Hick, an assistant professor of philosophy, who said the practice of using chatbots by students for papers and other work has become a “virus” and detecting content fashioned by the large language models is becoming increasingly difficult as the tools evolve. He mentioned that policing students’ work for plagiarism is yet another task on an already full plate for professors.
