The Blockbuster AI Tool’s Potential For Plagiarism
19 April 2023

An artificial intelligence research firm, OpenAi, released a bot ChatGPT in November 2022. Users can ask ChatGPT directly after signing up, and the chatbot creates answers when users give it commands. ChatGPT is a large language model tool that creates responses. It is powered by a large amount of data and computing techniques so it can predict string words and understand words in context. This new tool can write you a poem and explain to you how quantum physics works. But a full AI takeover isn’t exactly imminent and it doesn’t think the way people do. A law professor at Emory University said, “There’s a large number of monkeys here, giving you things that are impressive - but there is intrinsically a difference between the way that humans produce language and the way that large language models do it.”


Lian Jye Su, a research director at market research firm ABI Research, warns that the chatbot operates without contextual understanding of language. He said, “It’s very easy for the model to give plausible-sounding but incorrect or nonsensical answers.” University professors are debating ChatGPT due to its plagiarism issues, which affect academic integrity. However, Professor Mike Wooldridge from the University of Oxford said that AI systems such as ChatGPT would soon be able to generate text at human level, making it difficult to distinguish between human and machine-generated content.
