Concern of the educational community

Designed by Californian start-up OpenAI and released to the public in November, ChatGPT It allows you to automatically generate texts (dissertations, advertisements, etc.) or lines of computer code on demand in a few seconds.

It arouses concern in the educational community, which fears that it will be used as a tool to cheat or plagiarize by students during exams, but also for their homework. One of the founders of OpenAI, billionaire Elon Musk, tweeted precisely in early January: “It’s a new world. Bye-bye homework!”

ChatGPT and other artificial intelligences are now banned from schools and universities around the world, such as Sciences-Po Paris.
