CAISS Bytes: Noam Chomsky

Noam Chomsky a professor of linguistics has dismissed ChatGPT as “hi-tech plagiarism”, it has also been described as a “parrot” as it can only repeat what has been said before. There are concerns around how we will teach people to research, think and write, is using ChatGPT a “way of avoiding learning”?
