Student uses ChatGPT to do his homework but got caught when he wrote THIS in the copy

ChatGPT is an AI tool that has taken the world by storm. From writing essays to creating interesting graphics, there’s nothing it cannot do. However, there is a cause for concern about the future of humanity raised by artificial intelligence (AI). These Chatbots already have corrupted many talented people, moreover students.

A video of a seventh-grade student being caught plagiarising on his assignment has since gone viral. The catalyst is ChatGPT! Anyone with a smartphone or laptop, an active internet connection, and well-written articles on any subject can use ChatGPT.

A Twitter user by the name of Roshan Patel uploaded a message about how his 7th-grade nephew used the chatbot to finish his English homework in order to trick the teacher. Sadly, the boy failed to remember to remove the chatbot's previously saved prompt, causing him to replicate the entire outcome.

"My little cousin Arjun got caught using ChatGPT on his 7th grade English homework," the post stated.

Over 1.2 million people have viewed the post, and there have been many comments. While we don't blame the child for trying to cheat, technology is to blame for taking over the simple joys of creativity.

While many users seemed worried about the future of the new generation, some had their meme juices flowing. “Bade boodhon ne sahi hi kaha hai, nakal ke liye bhi akal chaahiye hoti hai” tweeted a user.

“If he made it to 7th grade and didn't figure out how to take that part of the response out, the system is failing our kids,” said another.

Many users believed that too much dependency on AI tools may rust the brains of its users and cause a cognitive decline with time.
