Chat Me Up

Imagine being back in high school or college and staying up all night trying to get that essay you put off until the last minute done. Now imagine that same situation, telling a computer program to write a 1,000 word essay on the topic and having the paper done before your head hits the pillow. Thanks to ChatGPT, you can do that now. Aside from the questions it brings up about cheating on schoolwork, it puts front and center the debate of what role artificial intelligence should play in our daily lives. Are developments like ChatGPT aiding in cutting corners or is it freeing up people so they can allocate their time in more important areas? Tom and Dylan discuss this and more.
