You know unless we teach more critical thinking, AI is going to destroy us as a civilization in a few generations.
I genuinely had students believe that what ChatGPT was feeding them was fact and try to source it in a paper. I stamped out that notion as quick as I could.
LOL. ChatGPT has become the newer version of wikipedia, only it won't provide references.
