Reply to comment by BrotherAmazing in [D] Can ChatGPT flag it's own writings? by MrSpotgold

ChatGPT is beyond cheating. We have to go on the default that it is applied in essay writing. And surely you agree that it is pointless to assess the output of a machine. Therefore, essay writing will cease to be a method of assessment, and consequently, whichever way you look at it, future students will no longer learn to write.

First, I’m blown away that you are suggesting that you don’t know your students and their writing styles, some of which are performed in-class and almost all of which differ significantly from the way ChatGPT writes, but second, my teachers said the exact same thing you are saying decades ago and freaked out when CliffsNotes came out!

Re-read my prior argument because nothing you just said impacts it, and it still stands.

I appreciate your comments. We don't have to agree. Moreover, I could be wrong.
