Class 7 Student Uses ChatGPT To Do English Homework. Gets Caught Because Of This Line

Since its launch in November last year, OpenAI's ChatGPT has taken the world by storm, rapidly becoming the most popular consumer application in history. This innovative chatbot has captured widespread attention for its ability to engage in natural conversations and answer various inquiries.

Notably, students worldwide have also embraced the bot as a handy tool to assist them in completing their homework and assignments, much to the chagrin of their teachers.

In a recent Twitter post, a user shared an incident where their cousin was caught red-handed using ChatGPT to complete their English homework, all due to a single sentence.

Significantly, a particular sentence from the homework assignment reads, ''As an AI language model, I don't have personal expectations or opinions.''

The 7th grader inadvertently left the chatbot's response intact in his assignment, exposing that he had copied it without erasing it.

This minor oversight ultimately revealed the plagiarism.

Furthermore, the teacher took note of the word "poignant" in the assignment, as it is uncommon for 7th-grade students to use such sophisticated vocabulary in their answers.

In addition, the teacher noticed the word "poignant" in the student's assignment since it is uncommon for students in the 7th grade to employ such advanced vocabulary in their responses.

We need to start teaching our children how to properly use chatGPT for education, like we were taught how to use Google.

We must become tech friendly rather than tech averse, chatGPT is here to stay!
Let's adapt https://t.co/1p1mN3bjgh

I can understand getting caught if he copy pasted chatgpt output into a word doc he submitted, but how dumb do you have to be to actually WRITE the words ¡°as an AI language model¡­¡± and submit it https://t.co/l1Cb20EZkW

Do we think schools should be worried about the misuse of #ChatGPT? #academicintegrity https://t.co/dtldbTvgBF

This kid is DUMB. In 7th grade, if he doesn't realise that he needs to omit that line, then he's actually just dumb. https://t.co/14149Gni2t

99% of people will use GPT AI to write their HW
but only 1% will know because they know how to edit it to make it look convincible https://t.co/jeqEk0urgp

Many pointed out the importance of applying some effort even when attempting to cheat, as teachers can easily detect lazy copy-paste tactics.

One user humorously commented, ''Bruh, at least read over it... It's meant to be a tool, not a replacement lmao. I use it to help formulate ideas and responses, and then add my language to it.''

Another user questioned, ''How could he write that sentence without thinking about it.''

A third user expressed concern, stating, ''If he made it to 7th grade and didn't figure out to take that part of the response out, the system is failing our kids.''

It serves as a reminder that even with advanced AI tools, there is still a need for critical thinking and personal input in academic tasks.
