Have students work with ChatGPT and let them spot / mark where the AI is hallucinating or wrong? Might translate well to general competence wrt working with any kind of source online.
What does someone learn from doing this? What happens when they actually have to use their brain to do something hard?
At this point, why bother?
Of course! How to apply the calculator to problems, and how to discern if a problem is calculator-solveable. We've decided as a society it's better for students to use calculators as a tool in mathematics, why is chatGPT different in literature?
You have to understand the problem and how to use the tool.
If one's understanding of how to use the tool is limited to "access the tool and dump in the question, then blindly paste the response into my homework document", I'd say you are not learning much. It's obvious that every contemporary teenager can learn that in a few minutes. That's not giving us the capabilities to move forward as a society.
But we can? Students using ChatGPT to get homework answers is the whole thing we are talking about.
E.g., we could not use a calculator at all when learning arithmetic.
Once we learned arithmetic and were learning (say) algebra, we could use the calculator to do arithmetic, but not to compute the algebra for us.
While learning trigonometry, we could use the calculator for arithmetic, but not for computing sines and cosines.
While learning calculus, we could use the calculator for arithmetic and sines and cosines, but we could not use it to perform integration or differentiation for us.
And so on.
I don't think Google in 2024 is guaranteed to be the critical-thinking tool that 2004 Google might have been.
