My argument in favour of AI is similar to my argument in favour of online learning. Here's Helen Crompton making the point: "These students might want to get into college, but they don't have the same opportunities. Programs like ChatGPT can act as a literal one-to-one tutor. So imagine that—imagine having the money to pay for a one-on-one tutor, very knowledgeable, with infinite patience, available 24/7. That's what ChatGPT is now providing these students, leveling that playing field. The parents can sit alongside the student while they use ChatGPT and say, 'Oh, that's great. I didn't know that. I've learned something.'" I see a lot of fear, uncertainty and doubt in the educational blogosphere about the ethical implications and all the rest,and these concerns are valid, but they need to be held up against the benefit this technology will provide. Good interview.
