A new artificial intelligence (AI) tool called ChatGPT has excited the Internet community with its superhuman abilities to solve math problems, produce college articles and write research papers. Some educators are warning that such Al systems will change the world of learning, teaching, and research, for better or worse.
Ethan Mollick, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business, sees its benefits as a learning partner. He has used it as his own teacher’s assistant, for help with preparing a lecture and grading instructions for MBA students. “You can ask it to find a mistake in your writing and correct it and tell you why you got it wrong,” he said. “It’s really amazing.”
But the superhuman assistant has its limitations (局限). ChatGPT was created by humans, after all. OpenAI has trained the tool using a large dataset of real human conversations. It sometimes lies to you, with confidence. There have been situations in which ChatGPT won’t tell you when it doesn’t have the answer.
That’s what Teresa Kubacka, a data scientist based in Zurich, Switzerland, found when she experimented with the language model. “I asked it about something that I thought that I know doesn’t exist (存在) so that I can judge whether it actually also has the idea of what exists and what doesn’t exist.” she said. ChatGPT produced an answer so specific sounding, backed with citations (引文), that Kubacka had to find out whether the made-up thing was actually real. “This is where it becomes kind of dangerous,” she said.
ChatGPT doesn’t produce good science, says Oren Etzioni, the founding CEO of the Allen Institute for AI. But he sees ChatGPT’s appearance as a good thing. He sees this as a moment for review. “ChatGPT is just a few days old, I like to say,” said Etzioni. “It’s giving us a chance to understand what he can and cannot do and to begin the conversation of ‘What are we going to do about it?’”

“Mum! Dad! My CAIE result’s out,”exclaimed Hala, sitting in front of her laptop on her study table. Her mother ran from the kitchen and moved closer to Hala, and her father sprang from the sofa.
Smiling ear to ear, Hala finally broke the dreadful silence,“I got A*in biology, physics,additional mathematics and chemistry. The rest are As.” Her father kissed Hala’s forehead and had stars in his eyes when he said,“Once again, my daughter has made me immensely proud.”“A*in biology? Then set to be a doctor and walk in our footsteps, huh?” said her mother who was an excellent cardiologist.
On hearing it, Hala didn’t seem as cheery as she had been when she had announced her results.
Soon, Hala’s elder sister came from her medical college and was excited by this news. She rushed straight to Hala’s room and congratulated her. “Bajjo, do you expect me to be a doctor as well?”There was a short silence after which Bajjo replied,“Well, don’t you want to be? When you were little, all you could think about was being a doctor, like father.”
“I want to become a pilot, Bajjo!I want to see the world from above. I want to go out in the world and see how it’s like,” Hala replied with persistence. Hala went over to the window and watched the clouds as though imagining herself flying through the clouds already.“Girls can be pilots. Someday, you’ll see me flying outside in the aeroplane, dancing with the clouds.” Hala pointed to the sky.
“Okay,” Bajjo sighed clearly from the exhaustion of the university, but also from the thought of the upcoming drama in the house.
Though hesitant, Hala finally decided to voice what she had been thinking.
At her insistence, Hala entered a flying academy to prove that gender is no obstacle.
