"Since its public beta launch in November, ChatGPT has impressed humans with its ability to imitate their writing — drafting resumés, crafting poetry and completing homework assignments in seconds. Its competence is concerning for many Canadian teachers, but not everyone sees this as a threat.George Veletsianos, a professor at Royal Roads University in Victoria, B.C., and Canada's research chair in innovative learning and technology, says ChatGPT could not only help students improve their writing but also push institutions to develop better ways to assess student learning that go beyond just regurgitating facts in a written essay."
