Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Post-Primary Education: Discussion

11:00 am

Mr. Pádraig Meade:

There could be a complete over-reliance on AI. If people constantly use ChatGPT, they will not develop the necessary skills for essay writing. In an exam setting, as it has always been hammered into us, you will not have access to your phone on the day. That is one of the main ethical issues, along with general laziness happening to students as well.
