Should we even be using chatGPT? Thomas Telving argues that the tech giants "can't just go around launching products into the global market that disrupt something as vital and important to all of us as the education sector." But we need some mechanism to address issues of access, quality and equity in the sector. People have called for AI-generated text to be clearly marked. I thought an icon for 'human-authored text' might be a good idea. And we've already seen fallout from CNet's quiet use of AI to write articles. But it might never happen. People objected when chatGPT was listed as a co-author on an academic paper. And we may already have passed the point of no return; according to report from Reuters, media companies are already quietly integrating AI into their products. And media giants, like Amazon, already depend on it.
