with artificial intelligence blasting its way into our society it's hard not to be excited especially if you're a college student I mean the researching process just became a fraction of the time and effort it used to require because now we have programs like chat GPT that are essentially language processing tools but more so than that is they will find information we're searching for and it's going to deliver it back to you in a conversational medium so what does this mean for research well the possibilities are endless and quite frankly it minimizes your effort in the
researching process so you could use it to brainstorm say a research topic how about if you research questions you can use it to find articles literally tell it to list you five different Journal articles based on that research topic you can have it then synthesize all of that information or per just summarize one of the Articles honestly it can probably explain any concept or topic better than your professors can due to the extremely large amount of capabilities artificial intelligence has but as with anything that sounds too good to be true there's always a downside in
this case a dark side because when you use artificial intelligence for learning it will impact what you learn there's no sugar coating that because quite frankly anything you apply artificial intelligence to it's going to water down whatever that thing was because it's minimizing human involvement in the process so when it comes to research it's going to find you information it's also going to process it and then it's even going to articulate it back to you so notice how much of your involvement in the researching process has been minimized honestly this is pretty cool stuff when
it comes to speed and efficiency of research however you need to be aware that the more you use artificial intelligence for research the weaker your skill will become for researching on your own because quite frankly it's a machine that does the thinking for you so absolutely it's going to weaken your skill in being able to think for yourself let's talk about math for a second who here is just awful at math honestly I'm pretty sure a lot of you would be raising your hands if I asked you because quite frankly we don't have to perform
math on our own it's something that we can do at the touch of a couple buttons because we have calculators on us at all times if not most of the time this is a similar situation for what artificial intelligence is doing for information just as a calculator weakened our abilities to perform mathematical calculations program programs like chat GPT that process information is going to weaken our ability to process information ourself however as I just said the calculator did integrate into society kind of making it okay that we allowed our mathematical skills to weaken now artificial
intelligence is also integrating into society you can literally download apps just like chat GPT on your cell phones and online there's tons you can choose from so that begs a question is it okay to allow artificial intelligence to take over our learning and the short answer is no because critical thinking skills will always be in fashion but that doesn't mean you can't use programs like chat GPT and all its glory to make your learning a lot easier all it means is that it's your responsibility to use programs like this as a tool for Learning and
not just a shortcut for doing because at the end of the day it's your thinking skills on the line nobody else's and quite frankly that's why I'm covering this channel on my topic that's why I'm covering this topic on my channel if you want to check out some of those videos be sure to check out one of these [Music]
