Hi Addi!

I love the pictures you created with your AI tool! They look so cool. Sounds like we use ChatGPT for the same things. It is an excellent studying tool. Thank you for bringing up biases in AI. This is a topic that is very interesting to me as a computer science student. There are several studies and reports of code actually being racist, which seems unintuitive, but the feelings of the developer can come out in code. This is something that should be addressed as technology becomes more ingrained in our world. You also made a great point about deepfakes. These can be extremely detrimental to society as it confuses people and can aggravate hate. I really like The Pudding website. It is so interesting, initiative, and creative. I will definitely be exploring it more. Additionally, thank you for bringing up the use of dynamic charts. These are so useful to data visualizations and really draw in users.

Hi Charlie! I really liked reading the story that ChatGPT wrote. Lots of funny puns. I also liked reading the Perplexity response. This may be a new tool for me to study with! I also agree that ChatGPT responses so quickly! Some days it is a bit slower, but generally it is extremely fast at responding. I have heard a few difference responses to the whole “AI is going to take over artistic jobs”. The one that stuck out to me was people arguing that artists may use other artists to help create their work. An example of this is Disney using many different artists to make one artists’ vision come to life. AI could do the same thing for artists today (and even Disney now). But AI will take away jobs from people, which is extremely alarming.

Thanks for sharing,

Hi Nat! Yes, in my experience ChatGPT does not help very much with spelling and grammar. There are other online tools that help with paraphrasing and such, but none that use AI. But, I am sure that AI will catch up pretty soon! I would also be careful about the resource lists. When it comes to academic papers, I have found that ChatGPT will make up papers that do not exist. It will just put together different titles to match what you asked for. I also agree with everything you are saying about ethical concerns. Plagiarism, fake news, and inaccurate information are all easily done/created with AI. There needs to be controls in place to ensure it is used wisely.   

Thanks
