Professor Megan Fritts assigned an easy task for her ethics and technology course, but many students used ChatGPT for their answers. The AI-generated responses did not reflect what individuals expected from the course. Fritts believes offloading thinking onto a machine does not create liberated minds. She expressed concerns that technology addiction is affecting students’ thinking abilities. While some educators are excited about incorporating AI into the classroom, others, like Fritts, are skeptical. Many are tired of fighting AI usage among students, and some feel it’s ruining the teaching experience. The relationship between education and AI leaves students caught in confusion and frustration.
