Ippolito speaks to News Center Maine about ethics of AI software in classrooms
John Ippolito, professor of new media at the University of Maine, spoke to News Center Maine about attempts to incorporate AI writing software like ChatGBT into classroom settings. Ippolito said that AI-detecting softwares for essays may not always work, so educators should teach both the ethics of using AI as well as how to use it to their advantage in the classroom. “Let’s not abandon this new technology, but also, let’s not completely give into it. Let’s mix and match,” Ippolito said.
