   Just in time for exam season South Australia has begun rolling out the government endorsed AI chat bot to high school students, powered by ChatGPT, I'm sure this will have no negative side effects. We're the 1 state that hasn't banned chatbots in school so we're the guinea pigs

     @wolf480pl You got the first part correct, but what will happen is grades will go up so therefore the experiment worked.

     Lets just ignore the data on actual intelligence

     I hope it goes spectacularly wrong, your state will roll that back next year, and the rest of the world will learn what not to do.

     @Amikke I have a lot of experience with government software in Australia, the general way it goes is implement it in the simplest and cheapest way possible

     @BrodieOnLinux actually if they manage to configure it to help students along with problems and explain things they didn't understand instead of just giving the answer, it would be an invaluable teaching tool. Essentially a personal tutor. The realist in me knows how government programs related to education usually end though.
