①Developed by Open AI and came out in November 2022, ChatGPT attracted 100 million monthly users in just two months, making it the fastest - growing app in history.
②Since ChatGPT can write emails, computer code, even academic papers and poems, and has passed a number of tests within seconds, it seems that it would be an innovation (创新) which can cause problems.
③The global response (回应) to ChatGPT varies greatly. Some universities have banned (禁止)it. The New York Department of Education, for example, banned the chatbot, with some people warning that it could make more students cheat in exams, while others regard it as a helpful tool. Andreas Lee, director of the Organization of Economy, for instance, said he welcomed ChatGPT because “it gives people a chance” to focus less on tasks that technology can perform equally well.
④How can we better deal with the chatbot and its development? Like the roles played by most technological advances in history, AI should be and will become a powerful tool for the development of higher education worldwide.
⑤Therefore, we need to accept AI as early as possible, and higher education organizations should make preparations for it. They can start by offering related courses, because by understanding how it works, they can avoid following the answers ChatGPT gives.
⑥Besides, students with good knowledge of AI are more competitive when it comes to getting a good job, as an increasing number of jobs are being done by robots. AI - powered education technologies can be adopted (采用) to the learning experience of each student based on his or her strengths and weaknesses. In addition, AI can free professors from doing boring tasks so they can teach and interact with students more enjoyably.
⑦Since we cannot avoid ChatGPT and other Al-powered applications from entering the field of higher education, we should make efforts to ensure they have a positive influence on society. AI helping makes learning much more interesting and enjoyable, but humans need to work hard to win the race with technology.
