OpenAI quietly removed its tool for detecting writing generated by AI, citing accuracy concerns. Fears of students using generative AI like ChatGPT to cheat have driven some schools to ban its use. Experts told Insider ChatGPT exacerbates underlying issues in education — like excessive testing and formulaic essays. OpenAI, the creator of viral chatbot ChatGPT, has quietly scuppered a tool that detects AI-generated text, citing accuracy concerns. Rebecca Tan, a lecturer at the National University of Singapore, told Insider that educators are adapting to a reality where generative AI is widely available.

Most American jobs are at risk of being impacted by AI like ChatGPT, researchers found. Educated, white-collar workers making up to $80,000 a year will be most affected by AI, per the study. Some jobs likely to be impacted include financial analysts, accountants, and writers. More specifically, the researchers wanted to find out which jobs are most likely to be "exposed" to the model's capabilities. The impact of AI on jobs increases as salaries gets closer to $80,000.
In an interview with Time magazine, Mira Murati — chief technology officer at OpenAI, the company behind the buzzy AI chatbot ChatGPT — said schools shouldn't rush to ban the technology on their campuses due to concerns over cheating. Instead, Murati said ChatGPT "has the potential to really revolutionize the way we learn," particularly in settings where not everyone has the same learning preferences or abilities. Still, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman echoed Murati, stating he also believes ChatGPT has a place in schools and considers it a more engaging way to learn. "I have used it to learn things myself and found it much more compelling than other ways I've learned things in the past," Altman told StrictlyVC. A digital-media lecturer at the University of Leeds, for example, told Insider she's used AI in her classroom since 2018.
Fears of generative AI helping students cheat are rampant, and some school districts are banning it. Instead, educators should think about how generative AI can be used as a classroom learning tool. Insider spoke with multiple AI researchers and academics, startup founders, and education-nonprofit leaders to learn how they're approaching generative AI in the classroom. If used effectively, generative AI tools like ChatGPT can help students develop critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are crucial learning outcomes for most teachers. That way, students are actively engaged and wouldn't be able to use generative AI to complete a full assignment, he said.
