56. How would that work.. "ChatGPT should be banned"?

Who, where and how would that be enforced? Sure you could block access in the school network but many have internet access through their cell phones. It seems a losing battle with technology winning. I think in the classroom situation, writing assignments and test taking should all be in the classroom with no cell phones. You know there is already a huge issue with students buying online help with writing papers and take home assignments long before ChatGPT. Do you not care about that??

This AI chat technology is actually still in its early stages. If you are upset about this now, you will go apeshit in a few more years.
