Should children in school be taught how to use ChatGPT in a disciplined way?

•
Schools in the U.S recently banned ChatGPT over concerns of cheating, but if used in a limited and disciplined manner, teaching ChatGPT to students can lay the basis for them getting to know the ever-evolving world of Artificial Intelligence.

Yes, for the same reason we all used TI-84 calculators in statistics and calculus. (Not that any of us knew how to properly use them 😂) Our current AI tools are just the world's fanciest calculators. They are narrow devices that can be used in an often magical way—but they are still narrow. Human creativity is still required for the bulk of real-world problem solving. This just means that the homework is about to get way harder! That being said, it's still worth it to teach the underlying mechanics of things, even if AI can do it for you in seconds. As a musician, I genuinely believe that one can't fully understand the power and magic of music without first learning to play it yourself. You can still enjoy it immensely and be mystified by it—but your knowledge, wisdom, and respect about it can only deepen as you learn how to produce music yourself.

ChatGPT can help students develop critical thinking and language skills, as well as provide them with exposure to advanced technologies and AI. However, it is also important for students to understand the limitations and potential biases of these models, and to use them responsibly and ethically.

Yeah, I agreed with you. I am a college student who is concerned about completing my essay writing assignment due to my lack of writing abilities, which is why I am seeking for the website https://studyclerk.com/essay-maker This website assists me in completing my essay writing project on time. The authors on this website operate professionally, and I am very pleased with the results. I received first place in my class.

The approach is more complicated than the use of computer (which also could lead to cheat). I think the first reaction is to ban before to understand. But let's hope we we'll developp critical thinking about these kind of tools. Personnaly I see AI (like ChatGPT) as an extra step to go more in depth in knowledge : it's like science, you don't need to learn everything to do science, but you accept the tools and knowledge to go deeper. We also launch a project in ProductHunt, it's called Mowgly and we deal with AI and Education

I wish people would be more accepting of AI as a new tool for humans to learn. In 2003, I remember teachers instructing me to stay off the internet for HW and rely solely on textbooks. In retrospect, HW was a great opportunity for me and my peers to learn the best ways to look up information online. Students can most definitely use ChatGPT for essays and homework. Those who go the extra mile to edit machine-made errors and refine their work to show colors will get better grades. As simple as that!

Why not? After all, it can help them with various tasks. I assure you that for writing homework or essays they find solutions here. And so ChatGPT can help them with different tasks

It seems to me that schoolchildren should know everything about what is happening in the modern world. We studied the role of artificial intelligence in the university. And I decided to use the service to do my paper according to the teacher’s requirements. It was difficult for me to gather enough information. I'm glad that the service helped me cope up with this difficult task.
