I have my students do this in short form: they write to a brief prompt and discuss their ideas, then each student copies the prompt into ChatGPT. Then they copy the results into a doc file and read them aloud to each other, highlighting where they are the same. It's enlightening.

I love this so much. I especially love how it helps students see their writing as personal even with assignments that seem impersonal (e.g., "analyze this text"). It inspires a sense of self in all the work they do. Thank you for sharing this

It's because ChatGPT is just a text prediction algorithm. It doesn't look for info or verify it -- it generates a likely pattern of text to respond and fills in the blanks with the most likely words based on data.

Congrats!! And that is a fabulous dress. :)

And then they wanted to know my reasons for wanting to end the service. I told them it's none of your business, because I'm well aware that's just a gambit to find an "in" to convince me to stay.

I just kept repeating: No thank you. I want to end my contract. No thank you. I want to end my contract. No thank you. I want to end my contract. Over and over and over.

Yikes. That reminds me of trying to cancel Sirius XM.

Happy Birthday (tomorrow) Dame Ellen!

... is the cat secretly a licensed electrician?

This one also has a good weight and heft.

These mugs are small -- they hold about 3/4 cup, which is perfect for rounds of gong fu-style tea.

We are in Act I looking at character agency and values with the Ham Fam. Would have had Ophelia in too, but scheduling was thrown off. Next week's fun. :)

It will definitely get us up and moving!

My Florida self is jealous!!

I teach juniors/seniors and am developing assignments that show them the limitations of ChatGPT. They already know its supposed benefits (to wit, speedy essays and homework help) and they think it's a research tool. ::headdesk::

Seconding the Bujold. Her Penric novellas (in the same world as Chalion, which I adored) are a great jumping-in point. I'm currently in the midst of her Vorkosigan series (yes, for the first time).

I have several of those -- excellent for taking notes in meetings or trainings and then saving them in a searchable format. :) also a gateway to FriXion pen addiction...
