ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence supported chat robot developed by OpenAI, stands out in many different areas with its ability to understand natural language and respond authentically. So much so that when students use the chatbot while doing homework, it was banned so as not to harm the thinking ability of children. However, according to the news that emerged today, a dyslexia student improved his grade point average by studying on ChatGPT. This has generated a lot of controversy.
ChatGPT may benefit dyslexic sufferers
Myriem Khal, who struggles with dyslexia in France, explained in an interview on the subject that she successfully passed the technical courses, but had learning difficulties in language classes. Khal, a computer engineering student, states that this is why he applied to ChatGPT.
The engineering student asked artificial intelligence for answers that briefly outlined the morphological expansion of words and the difference between languages. In this way, he learned the subjects by repeating the course content through artificial intelligence. Thus, he achieved the success he wanted in his exams. Khal stated that during the lesson, the teacher explained the subject in a technical way, but he learned it more easily and simply with ChatGPT.
Artificial intelligence enters politics: Appointed as a consultant!
Artificial intelligence took charge for politics! Romanian President Nicolae Ciuca appointed artificial intelligence as honorary adviser.
Saying that he also had difficulties in learning English, Khal explained that he had been taking classes over ChatGPT for five weeks and that he was able to progress this far for the first time. Dyslexia Doctor Pledger Fedora made the following statements, stating that this situation is very useful, but can harm if the usage area expands:
“Assistive technologies such as reading and writing text can be extremely useful to support students with dyslexia. But if students become dependent on these tools, it can harm the development of their critical thinking and problem-solving skills.”
Dyslexia expert Victoira Leslie shared her thoughts on the subject:
“It can encourage students to outsource and encourage plagiarism. This prevents learning.”
Interviewer Myriem Khal announced that she will limit herself to use after learning about the effects of ChatGPT on dyslexia.
To summarize, ChatGPT is a useful tool for learning. But there is more harm than good in getting ready-made information other than learning something from the chatbot. Therefore, it is very important to determine the reason for use well.
