We recognize that identifying AI-written text has been a very important point of debate amongst educators, and equally necessary is recognizing the boundaries and impacts of AI generated text classifiers within the classroom. We’ve got developed a preliminary resource on using ChatGPT for educators, which outlines a few of the uses and associated limitations and considerations. While this resource is targeted on educators, we expect our classifier and associated classifier tools to have an effect on journalists, mis/dis-information researchers, and other groups.

We’re engaging with educators in the USA to learn what they’re seeing of their classrooms and to debate ChatGPT’s capabilities and limitations, and we’ll proceed to broaden our outreach as we learn. These are necessary conversations to have as a part of our mission is to deploy large language models safely, in direct contact with affected communities.

If you happen to’re directly impacted by these issues (including but not limited to teachers, administrators, parents, students, and education service providers), please provide us with feedback using this way. Direct feedback on the preliminary resource is useful, and we also welcome any resources that educators are developing or have found helpful (e.g., course guidelines, honor code and policy updates, interactive tools, AI literacy programs).
