WGME speaks to Ippolito about ChatGPT
WGME-TV (Channel 13 in Portland) interviewed Jon Ippolito, professor of new media at the University of Maine, about artificial intelligence essay writing softwares like ChatGPT. Ippolito says ChatGPT is already used as a springboard for ideas in his class. “It does scare me to some extent…I think that banning the tools is not the right approach. Whatever happens, we’re likely going to need these tools in the workplace going forward,” Ippolito said. WPFO-TV (Fox 23 in Portland) shared the WGME report.
