Abstract

"Artificial intelligence writing programs, also known as AI text generators, use machine learning algorithms to produce written content. They are increasingly used in various academic settings for generating essays, research papers, and even scientific articles. Artificial intelligence writing programs have been on the rise and have made headlines in the past couple of months due to a new program called ChatGPT.

While these programs can save students and researchers time and effort, they raise concerns about academic integrity and intellectual property. Educators are reacting in various ways to the uptick in AI-generated material, with some welcoming its involvement and collaboration in the classroom and others left unsure about how to handle the change.

So, let’s talk about artificial intelligence in the academic world. We’ll go over what it is, how students and others are using it in ways that could impact education in both positive and negative ways, how to detect it, the implications, and what educators can do." - Article excerpt.
