it's not true that teachers ask only to argue one side. you're supposed to also write about opposing views in order to refute them and make your own argumenr stronger.

i'm currently an english major and i just spent a few minutes asking the ai some complex questions based on what i learned in my classes this past semester to see if it would generate any responses that would be deemed good enough by my professors for an essay or content quiz. while i was impressed by how quickly it related two concepts in an intelligent and articulate manner, its responses were all very surface level and didn't go into any specifics. i wanted to see if it would reference a scene in jane eyre where she's looking at her reflection when i asked it to relate jane eyre to jacques lacan's mirror stage, and it gave me a very general response about how the novel explores jane's sense of identity without giving any specific examples from the text. while i think this tool could be a helpful starting place for essays especially for esl learners, i don't think anyone's going to get a good grade plagiarizing with chatgpt.
