The GPT Dilemma: Navigating the Pros, Cons, and Impacts on Learning

Picture this: You are in a classroom where you are free to use GPT - but should you? This session invites you to explore this dilemma. We will discuss the pros and cons of GPT in education, considering its impact on your learning, future career, and life in an AI-driven era, using examples from Dr. Chen's experience teaching two Data Science courses (one undergraduate and one graduate level) at UMBC in Fall 2023, where students were allowed to freely use GPT. Dr. Chen will share insights gained from identifying GPT-generated work, and discuss strategies for responsibly and productively engaging GPT as your personal AI assistant.
