Can Chat GPT Really Help Writing Your Essay?

Introduction

The post-pandemic world is bearing witness to trends that will shape the future. One of them is the accelerating usage of AI tools for everything. Until now, AI was made for a more technical aspect of internet technology.

People kept the creative side quite separate from AI for many reasons. One of them is the imagination and ingenuity which only a human mind can produce. However, 2023 already sees AI-made painting, and one of its biggest shocks to the creative world was Chat GPT.

The AI tool can write pages, answer questions, and even give new recipes. Nowadays, it is also helping students write their essays. However, is it ethical? How much can the student learn if they allow a robot to write their essay? Can they be of any assistance if not writing the entire essay?

We will answer some of these questions below and whether ChatGPT changes essay writing.

What Is Chat GPT?

If this is your first time hearing about chat GPT, here is what you must know about this AI too. It is an AI tool in the form of a chatbot. However, its replies to its queries are not limited. It can give you both short and long-form answers.

There is a free version, but upon paying for the premium version, you can use Chat GPT to generate long-format text with a maximum of 3000 words. It can also remember previous conversations and generate answers based on that.

Can It Write Essays

Now the million dollar question is whether it can write essays that are quite acceptable by the teacher checking it. After all, the free version is available to everyone, so what stops everyone in the class from using the same tool?

Afterall, one cannot stop a student desperate to complete an assignment when they are bombarded with too much homework.

Yes, the topic will make each essay fundamentally different, but everyone will emulate the same writing format. Needless to say, there is a certain limitation to that. Let us discuss a few of them.

What Are The Limitations

Here are some limitations that can come from everyone starting to use chatGPT for their essay assignment.

The human touch will be lost: AI can provide you with the most accurate information, but the tonality will be robotic. If you copy-paste the whole thing, you will start sounding like a nobel laureate from the middle ages. Considering the precise sentences and word choices, ChatGPT is notoriously known for.

For example: What is Dopamine?

“Often known as the happy chemical, Dopamine is a chemical produced in our brain. Produced in the substantia Nigra of the cerebral cortex dopamine induces energy, and excitement. High doses of dopamine in the body can, however, lead to schizophrenia.”

“Dopamine is produced in several areas of the brain, including the substantia nigra and the ventral tegmental area. It is then released into the synapse, the tiny gap between neurons, where it can bind to specific dopamine receptors on the postsynaptic neuron and activate them. This activation can have a variety of effects, depending on the location of the receptors and the specific functions of the neurons involved.”

Now, anyone reading this can understand which was written by a human and the other by an AI.

How To Use Chat GPT Wisely

We are not asking you to completely dismiss the idea of CharGPT. Afterall, if there is a tool out there that can ease your work, then why not? However, the keyword over here is to ‘take help’ and not let you do the entire thing all at once.

Do not be so dependent on the AI tool that you are unable to write anything on your own. Use ChatGPT to add some of the important data and statistical reports to your essay. Extreme medical jargon is also required at times to bring about the scientific angle of the essay.

However, try to keep the creativity intact within your writing, and do not forget to thoroughly edit your essay before submission.
