▲ 96 ▼ Do you feel that use of generative AI and LLMs is ever justifiable? If so, when and where? If not, why not?

Got a link? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] auraithx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 5 months ago (2 children) Yes as I had this discussion with someone the other week. The effect of ChatGPT on students’ learning performance, learning perception, and higher-order thinking: insights from a meta-analysis A peer-reviewed meta-analysis of 51 studies found that ChatGPT has a large positive effect on students’ learning performance, and moderate positive effects on learning perception and higher-order thinking skills (like analysis and synthesis) across educational contexts. The Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Students’ Academic Development Research published in the journal Education Sciences reports that AI in educational contexts can lead to personalized learning, improved academic outcomes, and increased engagement, with many students reporting enhanced learning efficiency. Artificial intelligence in education: A systematic literature review Ai tools support problem-solving skills, collaboration, and instructional quality in meaningful ways. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Zos_Kia@jlai.lu 13 points 5 months ago This seems about right. Anecdotally I never learned as much as I do since I use AI. It's crazy good at explaining stuff with exactly the angle you require according to your level and learning style. I've done some hardware hacking, built my own Linux distro for a project, got way better at administering my home server. The most fun I've had is to try and locate the rights to an obscure science fiction short story for a podcast I want to make. This led me to contact a few editors, library archivists, and a couple of noted literature professors. Genuine fun and connections, with the AI helping me navigate mountains of information, the legal aspects and also the cultural differences between the US and UK publishing scenes. All of this is just in the last few months, it would have taken me years pre-ai or more realistically I would have given up before getting anywhere. permalink fedilink source parent [–] bright_side_@piefed.world 8 points 5 months ago That's very interesting, thanks! permalink fedilink source parent
