Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT is getting popular, winning 100 million users since it came out in November 2022. People can use the robot to write stories and emails, answer questions and so on. In its own words, it is “a language model trained in a lot of Internet text to help users get human-like text.”
Compared with Siri or other chatbots (聊天机器人), ChatGPT uses a much bigger database (数据库) for training. It uses stronger software (软件) and hardware (硬件) to learn things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will correct. “It’s a totally different product,” computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University said. “Its knowledge level is similar to a university student. That’s why it surprises the world.”
But the big problems with ChatGPT are that it makes mistakes and even gives false information. When Rezza, a 28-year-old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an article, “it gave out wrong information,” he said. Since the robot is trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up on the Internet’s biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with.

“Creativity is the key to a bright future,” said education and business experts. Here is how schools and parents can help their children to develop their creativity.
If Dick Drew had listened to his boss in 1925, we might not have a product that we now think of as of great importance: a new kind of tape. Drew worked for the Minnesota Mining Company. At work he invented a kind of material strong enough to hold things together. But his boss told him not to think more about the idea. Drew didn’t stop and finally, using his own time, Drew improved the tape, which now is used everywhere by many people. And the company learned from its mistake. Now the company encourages its workers to spend 15% of their work time just thinking about and developing new ideas.
Creativity is not something one is just born with. A person with high intelligence(智力) does not mean that he uses it creatively. Creativity is the matter of using your intelligence to think of new ideas that are good for something.
We know that many schools have tried to develop students’ creativity, but some teachers only want to develop students’ reading, writing and math skills, and have to give up creativity for correct answers. Children from such schools can give correct answers, but they are unable to use them to work out problems.
It is important to give children choices. From the earliest age, children should learn to make decisions and understand their results. Even though it’s choosing between two kinds of food for lunch, decision-making helps thinking skills. As children grow older, parents should let their children ________ how to use their time or spend their money, but not help them too much if they make the wrong decision. The child may have a hard time, but that is all right.

When asked who invented the telephone, most people say it was Alexandre Graham Bell. However, in 2002 the US Congress agreed that the true inventor was an unknown Italian inventor, who died in poverty in New York. And his name is Antonio Meucci.
Antonio Meucci was born in Florence in 1808. In the 1830s, he got into trouble with the rulers for his political views. After a period in prison (监狱), he decided to move to Cuba. There he continued working on his inventions. He discovered that sounds could travel through wires (金属丝, 电线). In 1850, Meucci moved to the US, where he thought he would have more chances to develop his ideas. When his wife became ill, he developed a simple telephone system so that she could “phone” him from her bed while he was working.
Around 1860, he showed his last invention, but because he didn’t speak English well, few people were interested. Then in 1870, he became ill himself and had to sell his plans to pay for doctors.

【推荐2】Have you ever forgotten where your socks are when you wake up in the morning? Can you remember what you ate for lunch a week ago? You may think that being forgetful is not a good thing. But now you should be thankful.
Scientists found that forgetting is actually a key part of learning. Getting rid of(去除) unnecessary information can help our brains work better.
What kind of information is unnecessary? Scientists say that this may have something to do with the environment you live in.
The environment is always changing, so our brains may require us to remember less. For example, a supermarket salesgirl meets many people every day and will probably only remember them for a short time. But a designer who often meets his or her customers will remember longer.
That’s because there is a special area in our brains called the hippocampus(海马体). It plays an important role for humans in learning and remembering. When new information goes into the hippocampus, it renews our old memories. This could explain why you forget so much information when you were very young.
However, being forgetful is not always good. When you don’t have enough sleep, you may have a hard time remembering new information. Sleep helps the brain store and keep information.

Lots of schools in America teach music, but not every school teaches mariachi. Mariachi is a kind of Mexican (墨西哥) music. It has a long history.
Richard Edwards Elementary School in Chicago (芝加哥) starts mariachi lessons this year. The students learn mariachi or violins and guitars. They also learn to sing mariachi songs. Mariachi helps them learn about the culture of Mexico.
Mariachi is also popular with these students’ parents. Many of them are from Mexico. They listened to mariachi music every day when they were young. But later they left Mexico and moved to the United States. Their children were born and they listened to different kinds of music and watched different sports. Now they can play mariachi together.
Mariachi lessons are popular, but it is not easy for schools to start the subject. Many people do not know what mariachi is. Money is also a problem. Schools have to buy many violins and guitars for their students. That needs a lot of money.
Still mariachi is becoming more and more popular with many American people, and schools all over the country.
