According to a US survey of more than 1, 000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with a homework task. Developed by US company Open AI, ChatGPT is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, create food menu, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned(禁止) the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the district’s networks and devices, CNN reported. The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on study. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread wrong information. “It does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic and lifelong success,” said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education. Apart from bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to stop the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported. However, not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are drafting(起草) policies on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far. Bhaskar Vira, headmaster for education at the University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use,” he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university. What we need to do is “adapt our learning, teaching and examinations”. That way, we can “have integrity(诚信) while recognizing the use of the tool”. 1.
