ChatGPT: "You shouldn't pretend to be in a world that only works with
your brain"

The uses of ChatGPT in progress are numerous: writing homework, summary
sheets or even writing code, the territory of the game is vast. Until
the TD exercises.

We no longer present ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence that scares
many teachers. Not all obviously, since a teacher from the Institut
Polytechnique de Paris decided to integrate the system with one
objective: the learning of his students. Antonio Casilli teaches
sociology to engineering school students “at master 1 level”, he
specifies on his Facebook post.

His idea ? Asking his students to use ChatGPT to teach them how to
verify the information provided by the tool “and revise the basics of
sociology through a phase of bibliographic work and sending the entire
conversation for evaluation”.

An exercise 100% based on ChatGPT

Thus in TD, the students had to embark on a ChatGPT Challenge, "as I
have already had Wikipedia challenges done, where the students had to
feed Wikipedia pages", specifies Antonio Casilli for whom ChatGPT is not
a tool. cheating but can be a learning tool.

30 minutes to ask questions to ChatGPT “to generate a conversation that
repeats what was said in class the week before” and which requires them
to have understood and “to ask the right questions to get the right
answers”; 20 minutes then to work on the bibliography of the text then
to check the veracity of the answers of ChatGPT.

Students relieved

On the student side, after the many bans on using it in higher
education, the use of ChatGPT can be difficult to assume. Not among the
students of Antonio Casilli: “There was a certain relief, not having to
lie by saying that they had never used the tool. But they were also
relieved when I mentioned it because their teachers are sometimes
suspicious in other contexts. I know that some people, who write code in
particular, have a hard time understanding it, because when they ask him
for code, ChatGPT gives them huge errors. »

They also know that other exercises will be offered to them. “Use
different prompts to get the same answer, or answers that look very
similar, to see what consensus is and what consensus knowledge is; or
give them any scientific text post 2021 and see how from different
prompts ChatGPT is able to reproduce it”, lists the teacher.

“If before we used the calculator, the processors, we can use ChatGPT”
He tells us: “ChatGPT is not in itself revolutionary, the AI ​​just offers
to generate texts without explaining why. It is excellent for
improvising, for formatting text or translation, but not for a factual
search for information. On the other hand, these are features that other
software allowed to do before. »

The sociology teacher, "old enough to [se] use Google or Wikipedia", has
integrated the tool into his practice with his students for a simple
reason: "You shouldn't pretend to be in a world who works with his brain
only. I work with the tools that the students and I have. If before we
used the calculator, the processors, we can use ChatGPT to teach. »

P.S.: adesso chi sa bene il francese e l'inglese per favore ci elenca
gli errori di traduzione che /deformano/ quanto scritto nell'articolo,
perché io ho l'impressione che ce ne siano

P.P.S.: ...e sì, usare Lingva Translate (https://lingva.ml/) è un ottimo
strumento didattico per mettere alla prova le proprie competenze
linguistiche

P.P.P.S.: eh certo, 'mo manca _drammaticamente_ un /proxy/ anonimizzante
per ChatGPT ;-)
